The Zimbabwe Sables are feeling optimistic about their chances in the Rugby Africa Cup final match against Algeria on Sunday, despite missing three crucial players. Tino Mavesera, Cleopas Kundiona, and Ian Prior have returned to their clubs, but head coach Pieter Benade is undeterred, expressing faith in his team’s ability to adapt and overcome the challenge.
Benade’s confidence is rooted in the team’s performance in the lead-up to the final, where they have been making the most of their time in Kampala, focusing on training and giving back to the community. However, they face a formidable opponent in Algeria, one of the most in-form teams in world rugby at the moment. Algeria has already made history by reaching their first final after a impressive 20-12 win over Kenya.
The Sables have a history of beating Algeria, but this will be a tough match. Benade will need to rely on his team’s depth and resilience to overcome the loss of key players. The final match is scheduled for Sunday at 16:00 local time in Kampala, Uganda, and will be shown live and for free on RugbyPass TV.
Can the Zimbabwe Sables overcome the odds and emerge victorious in the Rugby Africa Cup final? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – it will be an exciting match to watch.
