Following last Sunday\u2019s fiasco which saw the senior women\u2019s national soccer team, the Mighty Warriors, boycott their Olympic games qualifier against Zambia, it has emerged that ZIFA reportedly tried to field a club side in place of Sithelelelwe Sibanda\u2019s charges.<\/p>\n
The game was called off 30 minutes before kick off at the National Sports Stadium as the Mighty Warriors were in a no show, citing outstanding allowances tracable back to COSAFA Women\u2019s Championship in South Africa.<\/p>\n
