Patrice beefs up U-20 bench

Share

Chipolopolo coach Patrice Beaumelle on Thursday morning joined the Zambia Under-20 bench in drilling the youth team ahead of Sunday’s
2015 Senegal CAF Youth Championship qualifier against Mozambique in Lusaka.

The Junior Chipolopolo team is 2-0 up from the first leg of the second round match played in Maputo almost two weeks ago.

Beaumelle said it is vital that Zambia qualifies for next year’s CAF Under-20 Youth Championship.

“I came here because we wanted to do a tactical session to also let them know my philosophy. So that if I call one boy from U-20 or 17
they will already know my philosophy,” he said.

Beaumelle added:”The most important is not to win but to qualify to the next round because the team needs to check itself against other
teams to see if they are improving or doing the right.”

And under-20 coach Hector Chilombo declared his team ready for Sunday’s match.

“We are ready for Sunday’s game. The boys have been working very hard. We were doing a tactical session, definitely we have to win,” Chilombo
said.
