Australia 6 Zimbabwe 1
Germany and Canada qualify to next round after their game ended 2-1 in favour of Canada
Zimbabwe Mighty Warriors have finished their Rio Brazil 2016 Olympics mission on a high note.
Despite them trailing by 6-0 at 90 Minutes, the Mighty Warriors finished the last quarter of the match with raids into the Australian goal area resulting in injury time goal brilliantly taken by Immaculate Msipa from inside the 18 area against a very exhausted Australia.
That goal was consequential as it pushed Australia below Germany in the final log standings.
It was good to see high spirited celebrations from the Zimbabwe ladies who have made history by being the first football team to represent the country at a major global international football tournament.
Critics have been mourning about why we hail a team loosing like this.

But that is the best we have from Zimbabwe, even Fabisch’s revered Dream Team failed to qualify to any major competition and was even eliminated by a poor Cameroon that went on to get a 6-1 hammering against a low ranked Russia at 94 World Cup in the US.
