Zimbabwe coach Zdravko Logarusic has accused hosts Cameroon of witchcraft after a dead bat was found in the centre of the pitch before the game.
The African Nations Championship game took place in Yaounde on Saturday the 17th of January but Zimbabwe’s coach made accusations before the game even kicked off.
A bat carcass was found on the pitch and Zimbabwe immediately felt that something was not right at all.
Zimbabwe’s chances were low going into the game with Cameroon as the hosts are favourites to win the whole competition but maybe things like this are why they’re so strong. You never know for certain.

We’ve heard of sabotaging the pitch with water, messing with players gear or dressing room but this is the first time we’ve ever seen a bat carcass on the pitch and accusations of witchcraft.
Do you believe the Zimbabwe coach or was he just making excuses before the game even began ?
