ZIMBABWE warriors have been eliminated from the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers after losing 1-0 to Ghana at the National Sports Stadium on Tuesday.

The Warriors needed a victory to keep their slim chances of progressing to the next round alive, but Thomas Partey’s first-half strike dumped them out of the competition.

The result put them eight points behind Group G leaders, Black Stars, with only two rounds left.

The game had a cagey start, and only picked up towards the tenth-minute mark when Ghana’s Kamaldeen Sulemana tried to find the near post, only for Talbert Shumba to block his shot

Ghana scored the only goal of the match through Thomas Partey who caught Talbert Shumba Off guard.

Meanwhile, Bafana Bafana is hosting Ethiopia this evening.
