Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe on Tuesday appointed German Michael Nees as their new football coach after a winless start to their World Cup qualifiers.
Michael Nees, 57, has previously coached Rwanda and was South Africa 's director of coaching . Nees' appointment is due to his "deep knowledge of the African football landscape ," said Lincoln Mutasa, interim director of the Zimbabwe Football Association.
The German will have the tough task of reviving Zimbabwe 's World Cup hopes . The southern African country, which has never qualified for the World Cup, is winless after four qualifying matches.
The Warriors started with draws against Rwanda and Nigeria , then lost to Lesotho and South Africa.
