Zambia Monday Football Round-up

Share

9 over age players have been dropped from the Zambia Under-17 national team training camp in Lusaka.

The 9 were all part of the original 24-member team unveiled by Faz last week that went into camp in Lusaka on Saturday.

They include ex-Zambia schools goalkeeper Thomas Njovu of Afrisports, defender Lawrence Chungu of Police Blue Stars and Simon Nkhoma of K-Stars.

Others Kenny Lungu, Mulenga Macha, Ken Mwanza, Nicholas Musonda, Stephen Kanyala and Kennedy Mumba.

Meanwhile the Under-17 team is due to break camp on Tuesday with the cancellation of their Algeria 2009 Caf Africa Under-17 Cup 1st round 1st leg qualifier against Namibia looming.

The game, scheduled for August 30 in Lusaka, is likely to be postponed due to the 21-day of national mourning for president Levy Mwanawasa who died on August 19 in Paris.

Meanwhile, Faz say they will know in the next 24 hours whether they will or will not host Togo on September 6 in a 2010 Word/ Africa Cup Group 11 qualifier in Chililabombwe.

Faz say they have written to Fifa over the possible postponement of the match and expect an official reply from Zurich before the end of the day on Tuesday.

The match is scheduled to be played 3 days after Mwanawasa is put to rest on September 3 at his farm just east of Lusaka at Palabana.

The period of national mourning ends on September 8.

And the Zambia national team returns home Monday night from Europe after completing a 10-days training camp in Germany.

The team is expected to regroup on Thursday in Kitwe.
