The British-born Warriors defender scored the match’s only goal with a stunning free-kick, striking the ball into the top-left corner in the 75th minute. Following the game, Zemura shared on Instagram:
<blockquote>
Straight off the training ground. You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand. Grazie ai fan per il supporto (Thanks to the fans for the support).
</blockquote>
Zemura’s Warriors teammate, Marshall Munetsi, also found the net for his French club Stade de Reims, contributing to their 4-2 win over Montpellier on Sunday.
Munetsi opened the scoring in the 6th minute, with additional goals from Keito Nakamura (25′), Oumar Diakité (57′), and Teddy Teuma (90+3′).
Both Munetsi and Zemura are set to represent the Warriors in the upcoming back-to-back Group J AFCON Qualifiers against Namibia, scheduled for October 10 and 14 at Orlando Stadium in South Africa.

Jordan Zemura, Marshall Munetsi On Target Ahead Of AFCON Qualifiers

Former Warriors coach Norman Mapeza defended his conduct and management style during the Four Nations tournament in Malawi last month.
This comes after the FC Platinum coach was accused of poor player management and “military” training routines during the Malawi tournament.
The ZIFA Normalisation Committee appointed Mapeza as the Warriors coach for the tournament which also featured the hosts Malawi, Zambia and Kenya.
The four nations used the tournament to prepare for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers to be played in June.
Yesterday, a report claimed that Itay-based wing-back Jordan Zemura had threatened to withdraw from future Warriors call-ups as long as Mapeza “does not change his treatment of England-born players and his player management style’’.
Zemura himself did not make the remarks but they were attributed to a source within his camp.
Speaking to <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/mapeza-reacts-to-zemura-attacks/">The Herald</a> about the issue, Mapeza expressed surprise over the accusations, saying Zemura may have been unhappy for getting limited game time at the tournament. He said:
<blockquote>
Maybe the problem was that he didn’t play as much as he would have liked. I told him Jordan you have changed a little bit in terms of your attitude. Last year you were pushing, you wanted to play, what is going on?
That’s what I asked him and he said no coach I am fine but I will sort it out. That’s what I spoke to him about. I am a coach and I can see when a player is having challenges.
</blockquote>
Mapeza also explained why he substituted Zemura against Zambia and his decision to leave him out of the final against Kenya. He said:
<blockquote>
I had seen him and I wanted someone who is more like a midfielder. The formation we were playing didn’t have natural wingers.
He plays left-back most of the time, like the other game that I saw him playing against Inter-Milan.
I talk to everybody. I told him I want you to play here and he said it’s okay coach. Then I substituted him. So does he mean he didn’t want to be substituted? Is he now a Maradona?
That’s the problem at the end of the day. To be honest with you, I respect football players but I believe football is all about teamwork.
It’s not about an individual. It’s not about Zemura, Marshall Munetsi, or Knowledge Musona. It’s about collective effort. That he did not play the second game was more tactical than anything else.
</blockquote>
Mapeza also disputed comments attributed to Zemura, that his training methods were too physical leaving players with no recovery plan for the next match-day. He said:
<blockquote>
How are my training methods military style when I have only been with these guys a few days?
Zemura and the other foreign-based guys arrived on a Tuesday night and we trained once on Wednesday in the morning.
Then in the afternoon, everyone went to watch the Zimbabwe Under-20 match against Malawi Under-20. We trained twice on Thursday and once on Friday.
On Saturday we played against Zambia. That was that. You can ask Captain Marshall Munetsi and any other player who was there. So, was that military training?
Since we were going to have a game on Friday, we had tactical drills to demonstrate how we were going to play.
Afterwards, we did video analyses of the previous games; we made corrections and that’s what we were doing. There wasn’t much, I think, and someone claims military training.
</blockquote>
Mapeza said players must adhere to the national coach’s training methods during their time in the Warriors camp, recognizing that these approaches differ from those employed by their respective clubs. He said:
<blockquote>
Maybe these guys have their certain way of doing things at their clubs. But I can’t follow the programme of his coach in Italy.
This is a national team and we have only two to three days and I do what I feel is going to be good for these guys. Why only he and all the other players have not complained?
You can ask any player; we just did the normal training sessions.
We gave them off the other day. I have my programme as a coach the other day we were invited to a tree-planting day and I asked them that we have breakfast at 7 AM since the tree-planting programme was at 9 AM.
They should understand because we had a programme given to us by the tournament organisers.

Mapeza Responds To Jordan Zemura

Udinese Calcio fullback Jordan Zemura has reportedly vowed to never accept national team call-ups if Norman Mapeza remains the Warriors coach.
Mapeza, who was appointed Warriors caretaker coach in March, is accused of subjecting players to “military-style” physical sessions at the Four Nations Tournament in Malawi.
A source within the Zemura camp, who preferred anonymity, was cited as saying the “British Brigade” left Malawi feeling unwanted. Said the source, as quoted by <a href="https://www.hmetro.co.zw/zemura-drops-bombshell-questions-mapezas-style/">H-Metro</a>:
<blockquote>
Jordan is no longer coming for any future Zimbabwe national team matches as long as Mapeza is the coach. He will be unavailable.
There is a fierce war from the coach to frustrate the Europe-born-and-bred players and Zemura has decided to stand up against that.
This is something he has kept close to his chest because he is a patient and quiet guy but he can’t keep on putting a lid on something that has serious repercussions on national sport.
The Malawi treatment was enough for him to make a decision.
These boys network very much. They exchange notes and experiences. The country risks losing out on potential future national team players if this is not looked into.
Jordan is not about football politics and he regards Mapeza highly although he has serious reservations about his management style.
</blockquote>
The British Brigade refers to Zimbabwean footballers who were born in the United Kingdom. These players have a strong attachment to Zimbabwe and aspire to represent the Warriors.
They include Tivonge Rushesha, Jordan Zemura, Kundai Benyu, Cliff Moyo, Dougie Nyaupembe, Andy Rinomhota, Brendan Galloway, David Moyo, Shepherd Murombedzi, Munashe Sundire, Reiss Nelson, Tristan Ryan Nydam, Macauley Bonne, Tendayi Darikwa, Adam Chicksen, and Admiral Muskwe.

Jordan Zemura Wants Mapeza Out Of Warriors Job | Report

<a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Jordan_Zemura">Jordan Zemura</a> has made history by becoming the first Zimbabwean footballer to score a goal in Serie A (Italy’s top-flight football league).
The Udinese defender’s rasping shot flew into the top corner in the 14th minute in the 1-1 draw against Cagliari on Saturday.
Zemura is already the first Zimbabwean to play in Serie A following his move from English Premier League side, Bournemouth in 2023.
Zemura was born in England. He is the firstborn of Sharon and Seymour, who emigrated to the UK from Zimbabwe shortly before he was born in 1999.
The 24-year-old joined the Udinese on a free transfer from Bournemouth and signed a long-term deal effective 01 July 2023 to 30 June 2027.
He played two matches for Zimbabwe at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) finals held in Cameroon and featured in the 1-2 loss to Malawi and 2-1 victory over Guinea.

Zemura Makes Serie A History

Udinese coach Andrea Sottil has said Jordan Zemura can be difficult to mark for opposition defenders when deployed as an inverted right-back.
This comes after the left-footed Zimbabwe international impressed playing on the right side of defence in their 2–0 preseason friendly win against Cypriot league side Pafos.
The shift was necessitated by the absence of Kingsley Ehizibue, who is nursing a long-term injury.
Speaking after the match, Sottil told the <a href="https://www.udinese.it/news/squadra/udinese-pafos-sottil-dobbiamo-avere-la-nostra-identita">Udinese’s official website</a> that he was impressed by Zemura’s performance. He said:
<blockquote>
Zemura arrived to play on the left, today I tried him on the right and I think he did well.
With the foot reversed it can be very annoying for the opposing defences.
</blockquote>
It was Zemura’s second preseason match for his new side after he made the starting lineup in the 5–1 win over Austrian lower league side ASK Klagenfurt on 19 July.
Zemura joined the Serie A club this month on a four-year contract after leaving AFC Bournemouth at the end of his contract in June.
The transfer followed after he signed a pre-contract agreement with the Italian side in March.
The 23-year-old was, however, frozen by the Cherries for the rest of the season following his pre-contract agreement with Udinese.

Jordan Zemura Effective As An Inverted Full-back - Udinese Coach

Jordan Zemura is relishing the opportunity to compete at the highest level and against star players in Serie A following his recent move to Italian topflight side Udinese.
The 23-year-old England-born Warriors player joined Udinese on a free transfer late last season after his contract with English Premier League club AFC Bournemouth expired.
In an interview with Udinese’s official website, Zemura said the move was an opportunity for him to get out of his comfort zone in England. He said:
<blockquote>
Joining this fantastic club means a lot: playing against players in a difficult league, getting out of my comfort zone, in England, where I have lived all my life, to move to Italy, and obviously being able to learn the language and culture of Udine has been a great experience.
When I arrived in Udine I brought my mother, she was impressed with the stadium and the importance of the club.
They welcomed us as if we were already part of the family; they made us feel at ease.
</blockquote>
Zemura, who played for the Warriors at the belated 2021 Africa Cup of Nations finals hosted by Cameroon in early 2022, is set to become the first Zimbabwean to feature in the Serie A when the new season begins next month.

Moving To Italy’s Serie A Has Been A Great Experience - Zemura

Warrior’s wing-back <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Jordan_Zemura">Jordan Zemura</a> said he spent much of his time playing video games and spending more time with his family during FIFA international windows when Zimbabwe was suspended by the world football governing body.
The 23-year-old Udinese player said he was worried that the suspension could go for five years or more. <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/time-to-refocus-zemura-reveals-high-expectations-on-international-football/">He said</a>:
<blockquote>
I used to play video games and of course, spent most of my time with my family so I couldn’t get to think much about it (the suspension).
You know a football career is very short. I was thinking what if the suspension goes on for five or so years? My mind was spinning.
I really want to represent my country and defend the badge so it was a very painful experience knowing you could have gotten the chance to play for your country but you couldn’t.
It is something that affected not only me but hundreds of other players. I love my country first and foremost.
And to be unable to represent them was the most painful thing that I have had to endure in my short football career.
</blockquote>
Zemura said despite his disappointment over the Warriors’ failure to participate in the qualifiers for the African Cup of Nations to be held in Cote d’Ivoire next year due to the FIFA suspension, he was excited that the ban has been lifted. He said:
<blockquote>
The feeling is immense. It’s great to know that I will be able to return home and represent Zimbabwe again.
It’s a shame we had to miss out on the African Cup of Nations qualifiers due to the suspension.
It feels great to know that we will be able to play international football again. It is a great feeling to be able to defend the flag. That is the greatest feeling a footballer can have.
I am really looking forward to seeing the staff and my international teammates again.
The group of players have a lot of quality and I am sure they are all ready to compete and perform for the badge.
</blockquote>
The former AFC Bournemouth player is set to make history as the first Zimbabwean player to play in the Italian top flight.

Jordan Zemura "Looking Forward" To Playing For Warriors Again

Warriors utility player Jordan Zemura has expressed gratitude to AFC Bournemouth and the club’s fans as he prepares to make his move to Italy.
In April, Italian club Udinese Calcio, commonly referred to as Udinese announced the signing of Zemura.
The 23-year-old became the first Zimbabwean to join a Serie A club after signing a long-term deal with Udinese effective 01 July 2023 to 30 June 2027.
Zemura took to social media to thank the Cherries for the time he spent with them since joining as a 19-year-old. He wrote:
<blockquote>
The season is officially over, first of all, wanted to say thank you to my family and friends for your support throughout it all, in a season that I will never forget playing in the biggest league in the world! Something that I will forever cherish and hold tight to me.
Secondly, after all that has been said throughout the course of the last 3 months I wanted to make it known I am forever grateful to @officialafcb for allowing me to showcase myself and trusting me!
Thank you to the staff all across the club they showed me love and care. To the fans thank you for singing my name to the rooftops, and 4 the love from day 1❤ something so special and will never be forgotten, no matter what was said I came as a 19-year-old boy and I’ve grown with every step, for that I am forever thankful!
Wish nothing but the best for the club and my teammates who have helped me since I first stepped into the dressing room. Once a cherry always a cherry.
Excited for the future to continue developing and working harder and achieving everything I set out to achieve in this game, with God’s grace and protection I will!
</blockquote>
Zemura was banished from the Bournemouth first-team squad after he allegedly rejected a proposed new deal in excess of £30 000 per week, alongside additional bonuses and achievable salary rises.
His last appearance for the club came in the 3-2 defeat at Arsenal in early March.

Zemura Thanks AFC Bournemouth Ahead Of Move To Udinese

Bournemouth coach Garry O’Neil says he has no bad feelings towards Jordan Zemura after the Zimbabwean international rejected an improved contract in order to join Italian Serie A club Udinese on a free transfer.
Zemura (23), signed a four-year deal after refusing to extend his stay at the Cherries beyond this season.
The club responded by freezing him out of the senior squad and sending him to train with the development squad.
Asked if he feels let down by Zemura for the way his departure has transpired, Cherries head coach O’Neil told the <a href="https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/23456884.gary-oneil-jordan-zemuras-decision-leave-afc-bournemouth/">Daily Echo</a>:
<blockquote>
All of it is out now, so you all have a really clear picture of the situation.
I don’t feel any way about it. As a footballer, you have decisions to make and you make them and you do what you think is best for yourself.
My responsibility is to do what I think is best for the team and the group and the club.
It is the same with any situation that I deal with really. No real feelings about it, just what is best for the group and how we give ourselves the best chance of staying up at the end of the season.
</blockquote>
O’Neil said Zemura’s situation has not been a distraction to him and the squad. He said:
<blockquote>
Nothing will distract me and the group from the task at hand, I can guarantee you that.
There will be no shift in focus. It will be 100 percent, from the moment that I took over until the end of the season.
I think you guys know most of it now, if not all of it. I think it’s all out.
The club has always been really aligned in how we see it.
Jordan will move on and play for another club next season. As always, my focus is on the group and making sure that everybody is ready for the weekend.
We’ve made a decision that it’s best at this moment for Jordan to train with the under-21s and that will remain until it doesn’t.
</blockquote>
Zemura joined Bournemouth as an academy player in 2019 and was later promoted to the senior team, and his departure would see the club eligible for a compensation fee.
Bournemouth are currently sitting in 14th position on the log with 33 points from 31 games.

Italian club Udinese Calcio, commonly referred to as Udinese, has announced the signing of Zimbabwean international footballer Jordan Zemura.
He joins the club on a free transfer from Bournemouth and has signed a long-term deal effective 01 July 2023 to 30 June 2027.
Zemura is set to become the first Zimbabwean to play in Serie A, Italy’s top-flight football league.
The 23-year-old left-back was recently banished from the Bournemouth first team after the club received a letter of intent from Udinese, stating that the Italian outfit has opened talks with Zemura about a potential move.
In <a href="https://twitter.com/Udinese_1896/status/1646165589264670722">a post on Twitter</a> on Wednesday afternoon, the Serie A club said “Welcome Jordan Zemura…“

Zemura joined Bournemouth as an academy player in 2019 and was later promoted to the senior team, and his departure would see the club eligible for a compensation fee.
He has not featured in the Cherries’ last five matchday squads, following a “club decision” after the left-back refused to engage in talks over a new deal.
Bournemouth’s latest and final offer was made eight weeks ago, with the proposed deal in excess of £30 000 per week, alongside additional bonuses and achievable salary rises.

Jordan Zemura In Talks With Udinese

England-born Zimbabwean footballer Jordan Zemura has reportedly held talks with several European clubs after he fell out of favour at English Premier League club Bournemouth.
The 23-year-old defender rejected a reported £25 000 per week, with his current contract set to expire at the end of the 2022/23 season.
United Kingdom sports website, Talksport, reported that Zemura has held talks with teams from outside England. It said:
<blockquote>
Contract rebel Jordan Zemura appears to have played his last Bournemouth game.
Academy graduate Zemura has been left out of the squad for the Cherries’ past two matches after failing to respond to the offer of a new deal.
The left-back will be a free agent at the end of the season and it is believed he has already held talks with overseas clubs.
Londoner Zemura (23), has made 19 Premier League appearances this season.
</blockquote>
Spotrac, which is the largest sports system for team payrolls, last year reported that Zemura was one of the lowest-paid in the English Premier League on a weekly wage of just £385.
Jordan Zemura has made 61 senior appearances for Cherries to date and joined from Charlton Athletic in 2019.
Bournemouth are fighting for survival in the English Premier League and currently sit in the relegations zone (18th), with 27 points from 29 games.

Jordan Zemura Set To Leave Bournemouth | Report

<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Jordan_Zemura">Jordan Zemura</a> was left out of the Bournemouth team that defeated Liverpool 1 – 0 last Saturday allegedly because of issues surrounding his contract with the club.
Zemura’s current deal expires this summer after the club triggered a one-year extension clause in his contract in March 2022.
It is understood the club has offered Zemura a significant pay rise from his current terms, but the London-born ace or his representatives are yet to respond or engage in discussions.
Speaking after the win over Liverpool, O’Neil said the Zimbabwe international’s absence was an “internal decision”.
Ahead of today’s trip to Aston Villa, Bournemouth coach Gary O’Neil insists Jordan Zemura remains in his thoughts regarding team selection but added the club has “three very capable left-backs.” He said: 
<blockquote>
I think Jordan has had a good time here, of course.
My job at the moment, I don’t get involved at all in contract situations, just purely on team selection.
As we saw, Lloyd Kelly is back fit now and can play left-back.
We’ve got a Uruguay international back available, Matias Vina, who has trained well.
So we have three very capable left-backs at the moment. So some tough decisions for me, but also positives that we have more options.
</blockquote>
Asked if Zemura remains in his thoughts when picking his team, O’Neil added: 
<blockquote>
All of them are, always. I’ll always make an honest and what I believe to be a sensible decision around who is best to play.
</blockquote>
Zemura arrived from Charlton Athletic in 2019 after a successful spell on trial and made his first-team debut in September 2020.
His breakthrough campaign was last season, under Scott Parker, featuring in 33 Championship matches, helping the club clinch promotion.
Bournemouth have long been trying to tie Zemura down to a longer-term contract, but no agreement has been reached, with other Premier League clubs believed to be interested in signing his services.
Jordan Zemura is reportedly <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/jordan-zemuras-meagre-salary-at-afc-bournemouth-revealed/">earning £385 per week</a> making him one of the lowest-paid players in the English Premier League.

Jordan Zemura Left Out Of Bournemouth Team Over Contract Issues

Chelsea defender Reece James suffered a knee during the blues’ 2-0 win over Bournemouth on Tuesday.
James was withdrawn in the 53rd minute of his first game since his return from the knee injury that ruled him out of England’s World Cup squad. Chelsea coach Graham Potter said:
<blockquote>
It’s the same area, so we are concerned.
It’s really too soon [to tell]. We’ll have to see over the next 24-48 hours. He felt something there and we will have to find out the extent of it and keep our fingers crossed.
He’s been really disappointed to miss the World Cup, of course. It was a huge blow to him. You could see today his quality and what he brings to the team. He is a world-class player. You see it from the outside but not until you work with him do you see how good he is.
He could play in any team in the world, and any team would miss him. The plan was to play 60 minutes today so now he’s disappointed, of course.
We hope it’s not as bad as it was and he can have a speedy recovery.

After three defeats in the league prior to the World Cup break, Tuesday’s victory places the Blues eighth in the table at the turn of the year, with 15 games played.

Jordan Zemura Speaks About His 2026 World Cup Dream

Zimbabwean left wing-back Jordan Zemura said he was “blessed” to make his Premier League debut and expressed gratitude to those who have helped him in his journey to the top tier of English football.
Zemura played the full 90 minutes as AFC Bournemouth defeated Aston Villa on the opening day of the 2022/23 season, with goals from Jefferson Lerma and Kieffer Moore giving the hosts a 2-0 win.
Speaking to the Daily Echo after the game, the 22-year-old Lambeth-born defender said:
<blockquote>
I’m blessed and honoured to be able to play. I can only thank the club, thank the gaffer, thank the coaching staff, and thank my family for putting me in this place. It’s a moment I won’t forget for sure.
I think that was massive for us because as a defensive unit we always try.
We’re really close on the field, off the field, so to get a clean sheet is really nice for us.
And personally, it’s always good to start the season with a clean sheet.
</blockquote>
The 2021/22 season was Zemura’s breakthrough season, helping the Cherries to promotion back to the Premier League with 33 appearances.
He also played two of Zimbabwe’s three group games at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) finals in January this year.

Zemura Speaks After English Premier League Debut

Warriors and AFC Bournemouth defender Jordan Zemura is reportedly one of the lowest-paid players in the English Premier League.
Zemura (22) joined the Bournemouth Academy from Charlton Athletic in 2019 and signed a £385 per week deal.
The contract was extended to June 2023 back in March, making him one of the lowest-paid players in England’s topflight.
Soccer24 reported a source as saying Zemura’s close friend and teammate Jaidon Anthony has a similar contract but the duo is not in a rush to have new deals. Said the source:
<blockquote>
I think it’s more both players are happy at the club and want to focus on their football at the moment.
I think they know they can get what they want wage-wise from either Bournemouth or elsewhere, they both seem quite mature and focused on football rather than money.
</blockquote>
Zemura played a key role in the Cherries’ successful campaign in the Championship in the 2021/22 season which saw the club return to the Premier League after a 2-year absence.

Jordan Zemura's "Meagre" Salary At AFC Bournemouth Revealed

Warriors left-back Jordan Zemura will be playing in the English Premier League next season after his AFC Bournemouth side was promoted to the top flight on Tuesday night.
The Cherries earned automatic promotion from the English Championship to the English Premier League following their 1-0 victory over Nottingham Forest on Tuesday.
Zemura played a crucial role in the goal after he won a free‑kick near the 18-yard line.
Kieffer Moore scored the only goal of the match after Philip Billing passed the ball to him instead of tacking a crack on goal from the free-kick.
Bournemouth are guaranteed the second spot on the Championship log which gave them, and Fulham, who are in pole position, automatic promotion to the EPL.
With only one round of fixtures left before the end of the Championship season (excluding play-offs), Fulham are leading the pack with 90 points, Bournemouth are second on 85 points, and Nottingham Forest occupy the third spot with 79 points.
Speaking after the match, Bournemouth manager Scott Parker said he was proud of his charges. He said:
<blockquote>
This group are a special group. I’m immensely proud of what they’ve done. They deserve their moment and they deserve to be in the Premier League.
</blockquote>
Zemura will join fellow Warriors team-mate Marvelous Nakamba in the EPL. Nakamba plays for Aston Villa who will most likely preserve their top-flight status.
The Cherries, meanwhile, return to the top-flight two years after their relegation in 2020.

Zemura's Bournemouth Seals Promotion To English Premier League

Warriors midfielder Jordan Zemura has extended his contract with AFC Bournemouth until June 2023.
Zemura is among three other talented young players who penned contract extensions with the Cherries, who are currently placed second on the Championship log.
Striker Christian Saydee (19) and defender Zeno Ibsen Rossi (21) have both signed new contracts at Vitality Stadium until June 2023 and June 2024 respectively.
The club also took up the option to extend the contracts of both Jaidon Anthony and Zemura until June 2023.
Anthony and Zemura have made 58 appearances and scored ten goals between them during their first full season in the first team.
Neill Blake, AFC Bournemouth Chief Executive, said:
<blockquote>
We are very pleased to have finalised these contracts. We have a proud track record of developing young players at this club and the progress being made by these four demonstrates the pathway that exists from our age groups into the first team.
It’s been great to see Christian and Zeno involved with their loan clubs since January, and we hope Jaidon and Jordan can continue to play key roles as we push for promotion for the rest of this season.

Zemura Signs AFC Bournemouth Contract Extension

Warriors utility player Jordan Zemura has called on supporters not to give up on the team after they crashed out of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) finals in Cameroon.
Zimbabwe became the first country to be eliminated from the competition following two defeats to Senegal (0-1) and Malawi (1-2) in Group B.
The Warriors take on Guinea in their final Group B match in Yaoundé on 18 January but will finish bottom of the group whatever the outcome.
Speaking after their first training session after the loss to Malawi, Zemura urged the nation to continue supporting the Warriors. He said:
<blockquote>
We are very disappointed to have come out with nothing from the two matches, everyone saw the way we played against Senegal, we conceded in the last minute of the game and against Malawi we created so many chances.
I think we need to improve on conversion, we create six chances and score one, that’s not good enough.
In the Guinea game, something has to come out of it, everyone at home has been supporting us and we have to give them something back to celebrate.
All I can say to the supporters is we are out of the tournament, but stick with us I am sure we will celebrate in the future.
</blockquote>
The 22-year-old missed the match against Senegal after travelling late to Cameroon due to COVID-19 protocols.
He was introduced in the second half against Malawi, with the team already trailing 2-1 but was not able to have a huge impact on the match.

Stick With Us, We Will Celebrate In Future - Zemura

Warriors and Bournemouth utility player Jordan Zemura has finally joined the squad in Cameroon ahead of the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) match against Malawi tomorrow, a game he said they have to win “at all costs.”.
The 22-year-old arrived in Cameroon on Tuesday night and was received and accompanied from Yaounde to Bafoussam by Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) technical director, Wilson Mutekede.
Zemura trained with the rest of the squad from 5 PM on Wednesday despite enduring a five-hour road trip from the capital, Yaounde to Boufassam, where the Warriors are based. Said Zemura:
<blockquote>
This is a match we have no choice going into but to collect the maximum points. We have to go as a unit, just like was the case against Senegal, defend well, play well and score goals.
The truth is every match at a tournament is tough, the competition is stiff and you need to be smarter.
This is a match that we should win at all costs. It feels like it will be a final given the destiny of both teams relies mainly on the outcome of this game.
Malawi lost in their first match and we also lost. They want to recover and we also want to recover. That’s interesting but we need to be the ones smiling at the end of the day.
We have always talked about reaching the knock-out stages and that hinges on the outcome of Friday’s match.
That’s interesting, it means a lot to us as players and to the whole of the country.
We will have to fight for each other and see to it we get the result our badge deserves.
</blockquote>
Zemura missed Zimbabwe’s Group B opener, a 0-1 to Senegal after testing positive for coronavirus at a time he was preparing to fly out of England for AFCON.

We Must Beat Malawi At All Costs - Zemura

Warriors defender, Jordan Zemura has been named among the ten young talents to watch in England. The Zimbabwean international is part of the Warriors squad scheduled to participate at the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) finals scheduled to start on the 9th of this month.
Ben Fisher, The Guardian correspondent made the following list:
<blockquote>
1) Brennan Johnson, 20, Nottingham Forest,
2) Isaiah Jones, 22, Middlesbrough,
3) Keane Lewis-Potter, 20, Hull City,
4) Jordan Zemura, 22, Bournemouth. Writes Fisher:
The defender has proven influential since impressing on his league debut in August in the Championship’s curtain-raiser, with Scott Parker entrusting him with being his first-choice left-back. This month Zemura, who spent three years at QPR, is set to represent Zimbabwe at the Africa Cup of Nations, three years on from working as a glass fitter after his release by Charlton. His biggest asset is surely his athleticism given the way he bounds up and down the flank. “It feels like my superpower,” he says.
</blockquote>
The other players who made it into the Guardian’s top ten youngsters to watch in 2022 are:
<blockquote>
5) Alex Scott, 18, Bristol City,
6) Ronnie Edwards, 18, Peterborough United,
7) Scott Twine, 22, MK Dons, 
  
8) James Hill, 19, Fleetwood Town,
9) Dan Neil, 20, Sunderland, and
10) Ayoub Assal, 19, AFC Wimbledon.

Jordan Zemura Named Among Young Talents To Watch In England

AFC Bournemouth wing-back Jordan Zemura has expressed his desire to become a key part of the Warriors set-up, as the team return to action in this month’s World Cup qualifiers.
The 21-year-old made his Zimbabwe debut in November last year during an Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against reigning African champions Algeria.
Zemura, who was born in London to Zimbabwean parents, told BBC Sport Africa that he wants to “be the main man”. He said:
<blockquote>
Not to be egoistic but I want to help my country. I want to do everything I can in every single game.
</blockquote>
Zemura has played for the Warriors four times and been in fine form for Bournemouth in the Championship, scoring three goals in 15 games.
He now hopes to transfer that rich vein of form to the national team. He said:
<blockquote>
I’ve got to set an example for other players and say ‘Listen, I have been doing well here and I want to show you guys that it’s just through hard work’.
‘Every game I am out there, [I have] the pride of playing for your nation, your mother’s home’. I’ve really got that exuberance, that energy to want to perform.
</blockquote>
Zimbabwe are out of contention for next year’s World Cup in Qatar after a dismal qualifying campaign but Zemura feels the Warriors are on the right path despite the setback. Said the wing-back:
<blockquote>
We have had a few tough games against Ghana and Algeria, really strong teams, but I felt from both games we took so much – we are on the right way.
For me, it’s how many appearances I can get, how many tournaments I can reach. I am still waiting for my first goal. Hopefully, in the next camp, I can get that.
</blockquote>
Zimbabwe’s World Cup qualifiers against South Africa and Ethiopia take place on Thursday 11 and Sunday 14 November respectively.

Jordan Zemura Hopes To Be Warriors' "Main Man"

Warriors caretaker coach Norman Mapeza is still to decide which role he will give to AFC Bournemouth left-back Jordan Zemura when Zimbabwe face-off against Ghana in a 2022 World Cup qualifier at the Cape Coast Stadium in Ghana on Saturday.
Zemura was deployed as a left-sided midfielder in the only two games he has played in Warriors colours – the back-to-back 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers against Algeria last year. Then, the Warriors were under the tutelage of axed Croatian gaffer Zdravko Logarusic. 
Mapeza is set to preside over the squad starting with the weekend’s game, having been appointed on an interim basis, and the FC Platinum coach has revealed he will have to consult Zemura on which position he feels he can excel. Said Mapeza:
<blockquote>
What I want is to play the players in the positions that they feel comfortable with and think they can play to the best of their abilities.
I will talk to him (Zemura) and if he says coach look I have been playing as an offensive midfielder, and if he is comfortable on that side, I will play him that side.
</blockquote>
The 21-year old has been a revelation in the English Championship side since making his debut at the start of the current season.
So good has been Zemura in Scott Parker’s pace-setters he was voted the best player for the Cherries for the month of August.
He has scored twice in 11 outings and is one of the front-runners for the September player of the month.

Zemura To Pick His Spot In Warriors Team

Bournemouth defender Jordan Zemura says he is looking forward to what the future holds for the country’s senior men’s national soccer team, the Warriors.
The 21-year-old made his international debut for Zimbabwean when Zdravko Logarusic’s charges played Algeria in back to back Africa Cup Of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers and took part in both the 1-3 defeat in Algiers and the 2-2 draw in Harare last month.
Speaking on the club’s TV after inking a new deal which keeps him at the Vitality Stadium until 2022 yesterday, the left-back said he has his sights set on a bright future with the Zimbabwe national team. He said:
<blockquote>Playing for Zimbabwe is something I’m really proud of and I’m looking forward to what the future holds and how the team can grow to be a football giant in Africa.</blockquote>
Zemura said the Warriors should target the 2026 edition of the FIFA World Cup.

Bournemouth Defender 'Proud' Of Playing For Zimbabwe

Warriors fullback Jordan Zemura says he is ready to face Algeria and Manchester City winger Riyad Mahrez when Zimbabwe take on the Desert Foxes in Algiers on Thursday night.
Zemura, who plays English Championship side AFC Bournemouth, said the Warriors are chomping at the bit to face the North Africans and are not fazed by facing the African champions. Said Zemura:
<blockquote>I am ready to face him (Mahrez), If I am given a chance to play, I will definitely do my best, he is good but I will try my best.
… Algeria are the African champions, they are the best team on the continent right now, in terms of form.
But, we will play against the best, prove a point or two against the best and find our way to the top, that’s how it works.
… If I am given a chance to prove myself, yeah, I am ready for the challenge, otherwise, I am very happy for the faith shown in me by the coaches.</blockquote>

Zemura Says He's Ready To Face Riyad Mahrez

AFC Bournemouth defender Jordan Zemura is enthused with the calibre of players at Warriors coach Zdravko Logarusic’s disposal ahead of the 2021 AFCON qualifier against Algeria in Algiers tomorrow.

The warmth I am feeling is incredible. I am ready to give the Warriors everything in the field, I am ready.
I have seen the players, they are a fantastic group. They are hungry for success and you know what, with that kind of attitude, we are destined for glory.
I think we have a good number of players who can make things happen. We have very good players dotted around the world.</blockquote>

Bournemouth Defender For Warriors, Leaked Provisional Squad Reveals

English Premier League side AFC Bournemouth have handed a new contract to Zimbabwean defender Jordan Zemura.
The 20-year old who plays for the club’s U21 team signed a one-year contract extension along with other fifteen academy players.
Speaking to the club’s website about the contract extensions, U21 coach Shaun Cooper said:
<blockquote>The players we have kept and the ones who have progressed from the under-18s all have the potential to impact the first team further down the line.
We wouldn’t have taken any of them if we didn’t feel they had the opportunity to progress. But, of course, everybody’s development moves at a different speed.</blockquote>
Zemura has trained with Eddie Howe’s first-team squad and came off the bench during the 3-0 win over Lyon in a pre-season friendly at Vitality Stadium in August 2019.
He went on to start for the Cherries’ first two group games in the U23s’ Premier League Cup in 2019/20, featuring against Nottingham Forest and Stoke City.
