The match was abandoned in the dying minutes after the referee awarded a controversial penalty to Scottland while the score was locked at 0-0.

But while chaos unfolded on the pitch, many fans couldn’t help but notice that Scottland’s biggest star, Khama Billiat, wasn’t even in the squad.

Zimpapers Television Network (ZTN) later revealed the reason. In a short Facebook post, the broadcaster said Billiat had been “given time to rest” — but didn’t explain why he needed rest or how long he’d be out. The post read:

“Scottland FC star player Khama Billiat is not in the team today as he has been given time to rest.”
