Forget Ghana, Bafana are Zimbabwe’s toughest World Cup foe - Karuru

Zimbabwe midfielder Ovidy Karuru believes South Africa will be the Warriors' 'toughest' opponent in the 2022 Fifa World Cup qualifiers, while dismissing Ghana from providing a stern challenge in the same group.

Group G of the road to Qatar contains Zimbabwe, South Africa, Ghana and Ethiopia with the qualifiers having been initially scheduled to kick off in September 2020 before the coronavirus pandemic struck.

It is the Zimbabwe-South Africa home and away fixtures, dubbed 'The Battle of Limpopo', which are eagerly anticipated by Stellenbosch midfielder Karuru in this group.
