Warriors coach Zdravko Logarusic says he is aware of the threat posed by Algeria but his charges will try to play attacking football in tonight\u2019s meeting.<\/p>\n
The Desert Foxes will host Zimbabwe at 5 July 1962 Stadium in Algiers in the Afcon Group H Qualifiers. Kick-off is at 9 pm Zim time.<\/p>\n
Speaking to the Herald ahead of the match, the coach said: \u201cYes, we are cautious, but we will be offensive. We need a result, it\u2019s simple.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are not going to deploy a defensive formation. We are not here for tourism, we are here for work.<\/p>\n
\u201cI trust my lads, and they will give their all.<\/p>\n
\u201cHistorically, we have done better than Algeria, in recent meetings, and that should spur us on.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe know they are the best team in Africa, but they should know that we are Warriors and mean business.\u201d<\/p>\n
Algeria currently lead in the pool after picking up six points while the Warriors follow in second with four.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Zimbabwe\u2019s Algerian Embassy staff, led by Ambassador Vusimusi Ntonga, were cleared to attend the game.<\/p>\n
