“If they can perform for a full 90 minutes the way they did in the first half against Algeria‚ they can beat Senegal‚” Nyandoro said.

‘‘The Zimbabwe in the first half and the Zimbabwe in the second half were totally different‚” Nyandoro said.

‘‘I do not know what happened in the second half. I am a little bit disappointed about the performance in the second half and I consider it as two points dropped. We could have won that game!”
