She is looking forward to their match and has promising players like Patience Ndlovu who plays in the Mighty Warriors team, Tatenda Gambiza and Talent Nyoni Baku who are in the national junior teams.
“I’m anticipating the game between my team and Bulawayo Galaxy to be tough because it is a match which will determine where my girls stand as a team and will highlight where we are supposed to polish up our game, Galaxy is a strong team, it will be a clash of the giants,” said Nkala.
It is Mposa’s second friendly match after playing Highlanders Royals whom they beat 4-2.

Watson Phiri, the Bulawayo Galaxy coach said that the girls are ready for the tri-club tournament.

They will be facing Mposa for the first time since 2021.
