Venue: Alassane Ouattara Stadium, Abidjan, Ivory Coast (neutral ground)
Kick-off: Friday, 6:00 PM CAT
Zimbabwe resume their Group C campaign against Benin at the same venue that hosted the 2023 AFCON final. Benin are forced to play “home” matches away from Cotonou due to lack of a CAF-approved stadium.
The Warriors have already settled into camp in Abidjan. Coach Michael Nees says the team is in good fitness and happy with the calm environment at their hotel base as final preparations continue.
