ZIMBABWE men’s junior side is finding the going tough at the ongoing International Handball Federation Trophy Africa after suffering their third defeat on Monday at the Ethiopian Sports Academy in Addis Ababa.
Zimbabwe lost 23-55 to Rwanda.
It was their third straight loss at the continental phase tournament featuring junior (Under-20) and youth (Under-18) teams.
