The Warriors have accused the hosts of turning to the dark arts to influence the outcome of the tournament opener

Zimbabwe coach Zdravko Logarusic has accused hosts Cameroon of ‘witchcraft’ ahead of their African Nations Championship opener in Yaounde on Saturday, which the Indomitable Lions won 1-0.

A photograph was shared with Goal ahead of the match which depicted the Croat coach displaying the carcass of a bat, accompanied by a sign which reads ‘witchcraft in Cameroon’ ahead of the two sides’ Chan bow.

The fixture, taking place at the Stade Ahmadou Ahidjo in Yaounde, was played in front of a quarter-full stadium after the Confederation of African Football allowed some fans to access the fixtures during the biennial competition.

Is there a spell to make soccer more exciting?

I know many pro athletes are superstitious, but I think the Coach is pulling our wing...I mean leg.

Those fingers in my hair
That sly come hither stare
That strips my conscience bare
It’s witchcraft

That’s silly. There’s no such thing as a football bat.

ahahaha!

Years back in South Carolina, my son had dumped some sand from his Tonka truck near our front door and my neighbor friend lost her mind—swore it was graveyard dirt for a curse!

hahahaha! Good times...
