playing away in the first leg of the All-Africa Games first round qualifier against Angola at the Sagrada Esperanca tomorrow.
Moyo, who missed the second leg of the previous qualifier against Zambia, has returned to take her place in the team as they hope for a positive result playing away in unfamiliar conditions.
The Mighty Warriors left via Johannesburg on Thursday evening and were yesterday connecting to Dunda, which is 400km away from the capital Luanda.
Moyo said morale was very high in the camp with the technical team reporting a clean bill of health.
“We had a very good preparation and everyone in the camp is raring to go. I think we worked well with the coaches and it’s now left to translate that preparation into good results.
“We don’t know much about Angola at the moment but I understand they have big players who like playing a physical game.
“But that should not be a problem because we have played similar teams in the past.
“They are also the home team and they should be the ones under a lot of pressure while we should be able to play our normal game according to the plan.
“We would want to win this match at all costs to satisfy the expectations of our fans,” said Moyo.
The Mighty Warriors qualified to the first round courtesy of an impressive 4-1 aggregate win over Zambia.
They had edged the Chipolopolo Queens 1-0 at Rufaro but, against the odds, went on to post a 3-1 victory in Lusaka.
