#DidYouKnow that Zimbabwe is a six-time champion in the COSAFA Cup, making them one of the region’s powerhouses? Their last triumph came in 2018 when coach Sunday Chidzambwa led them to his fourth win in the competition, a record for a coach, as they defeated Zambia 4-2 in the decider.

Zimbabwe’s COSAFA Cup history is marked by a series of victories, including back-to-back wins in 2017 and 2018. In 2017, they beat Zambia 3-1 in the final, and in 2018, they repeated the feat with a 4-2 win. This impressive run solidified their position as a dominant force in regional football.

Their COSAFA Cup wins also include victories in 2009, 2005, 2003, and 2000. The Warriors have a long-standing rivalry with Zambia, with many of their COSAFA Cup finals matches against each other. This rivalry has pushed both teams to excel and has led to some thrilling matches.

Zimbabwe has also shown promise on the international stage, qualifying for the African Nations Cup finals in Tunisia in 2004 and competing in the 2006 finals in Egypt. At the club level, Zimbabwe has produced notable achievements, with Dynamos of Harare reaching the final of the African Champions League in 1998.
