Despite playing away from Zimbabwe due to the stadium crisis, Simba displayed grit, organisation, and composure to claim not just a win but also a vital clean sheet.
Next Step
The second leg awaits in Eswatini, where Simba will defend their narrow lead with everything at stake. For now, though, this debut victory is a landmark moment, proof that Zimbabwean football is still capable of producing continental contenders.
