President of the Zimbabwe Football Association, Nqobile Magwizi, was delighted with the fighting spirit the Warriors put on display in their 1-1 draw against the Super Eagles of Nigeria on Tuesday, Soccernet.ng reports.
Michael Nees' side were the underdogs heading into the clash at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, and sat deep for most of the game.
Victor Osimhen broke the deadlock in the 74th, but the Warriors roared back almost immediately, hitting the cross bar before their eventual equaliser came in the 87th minute through Tawada Chidera.
