Zimbabwe's National Sports Stadium has been handed a lift it badly needed after the Confederation of African Football conditionally ended its ban on spectators. Under the new arrangements, up to 10,000 fans can attend two upcoming fixtures at the venue. The first is the Mighty Warriors' Olympic qualifier against Malawi, the second Scottland FC's CAF Champions League tie against Atlético Petróleos de Luanda. The cap replaces the previous blanket exclusion of the public, which had left matches without atmosphere and clubs without gate revenue. The caveat is that the stadium must keep meeting CAF's safety and facility requirements or risk the sanction returning. For supporters, it is the first real chance in a while to watch continental football from the stands at home. Clubs and stewards now face the job of moving a large crowd through controlled entry without incident.
