Zimbabwe national football team

 * ... that though the Rhodesia national football team was seen as representative of white Rhodesians, the team selected black players after 1965?

The only issue found by the Bot was the fivefold expansion. The C of E and since fixed this. Note that while the article is only about 500 characters larger than it was before the expansion, lists were removed and replaced with readable prose. Everything else is fine! Neutral. Sourced. No copyvio.--Coin945 (talk) 05:51, 17 September 2016 (UTC)
