Following the NFF formal protest to FIFA, Zimbabwe have now moved their home game against Bafana Bafana out of South Africa.

The NFF, as first reported by SCORENigeria, complained to FIFA that South Africa have been handed an unfair advantage in the qualification race to the 2026 World Cup as their final four qualifiers will all be played in South Africa.

This is because both Lesotho and Zimbabwe picked South Africa as their home grounds after their own stadiums were not approved to be staged the World Cup qualifiers.

 On Tuesday, Zimbabwe announced that they have changed their home ground from South Africa to Rwanda for their World Cup qualifier in October.

Zimbabwe initially played the qualifiers in Rwanda before they settled for South Africa, were they recently forced a 2-2 draw with Benin.

The three other qualifiers involving Bafana Bafana will be played in South Africa – vs Lesotho, Super Eagles and Rwanda.

They lead Group C with 13 points from six matches.
