UNDER 23, 90 MINUTES AWAY FROM ALGERIA.
The Zambia Under 23 national team on Saturday host their Mozambican counterparts in a Algeria 2007 All Africa Games football tournament 2nd round, final leg qualifying tie at Nkoloma stadium in Lusaka.
Zambia lead 4-0 from the first leg played in Maputo a fortnight ago on March 31.
A win or draw or a defeat by less than three goals, for Zambia on Saturday guarantees them qualification to the Algeria finals this July.
Peter Kaumba’s side has no injury worries but are sweating on the late arrival of key striker Given Singuluma of South African division 1 club Bay United.
Singuluma’s five goals in four games in both Zambia All Africa and Olympic Games qualifiers make him valuable player in Kaumba’s plans.
However, Kaumba will still have enough attacking options in the form of Konkola Blades striker Felix Nsunzu and Zesco United’s midfielder Rainford Kalaba.
Kaumba meanwhile welcomes back Zamtel FC defender Eugene Shamakamba who has missed all three of the Under 23’s matches this year due to injury.
Konkola Blades talented teenage defensive midfielder Stophira Nsuzu too is fit after suffering a slight knock in a training game on Thursday against Kitwe United at Garden Park.
