We don’t want that anxiety again. Cameroon has been our worst enemy as far as qualification to major tournaments is concerned. Twice they have denied us an opportunity to play in the FIFA World Cup on the last day of competition. Somehow, we always find ourselves with Cameroon in the same group and play them in the last match so we cannot afford that this time around,” he said.The Warriors’ fans have started arriving in doves in the South African city to get behind their team in the home clash that is being staged in South Africa as Zimbabwe, just like Kenya, lacks a CAF-approved stadium.##NAJAVA_MECA_8501760##The fans have been streaming in since Thursday with some putting up at the Park Inn Hotel where Harambee Stars are also staying.Polokwane city is about 200km from the border town of Mucina, making logistics a bit easier for the Zimbabweans.One of the die-hard fans Arnold Chapo told Mozzart Sport they are here to ensure Zimbabwe makes it to the Africa Cup of Nations finals.Where to watch and Harambee Stars’ probable lineup against ZimbabweChapo who arrived on Friday morning said he had flown from the capital of Harare accompanied by his wife Tanya.“We left in the morning and flew to Johannesburg and then took a car to Polokwane City.
