Zimbabwe Black Rhinos Queens made a superb start to their 2021 CAF Women’s Champions League Cosafa Qualifiers campaign with a 2-0 victory over fancied Green Buffaloes in their Group B opener on Friday.
Zimbabwe international Marjory Nyaumwe put her side ahead on the hour-mark with a superb header from a corner, before youngster Cristobel Katona added a second for the Queens.
Coming into the tournament as one of the tournament favourites, Zambians Green Buffaloes pushed their opponents as hard as they could, but failed to create much in the game and will hope for a vastly improved display in their second match against TURA Magic from Namibia on Tuesday.
Before then Queens will face Magic on Sunday and can book their berth in the next round with a draw in the three-team group.
