Zesco United coach Wedson Nyirenda predicts a very challenging 2009 season after securing another double this year.
Zesco on Saturday collected their second honor of the year after retaining the Barclays Cup with a 1-0 win over Power Dynamos via a 10th minute Jonas Sakuwaha goal at Woodlands Stadium in Lusaka on Saturday.
The Barclays Cup win comes just days after Zesco successfully defended and wrapped-up the league title with two games to spare last Wednesday when they beat Nchanga Rangers 1-0 in a Week 29 game at the Trade Fair Grounds in Ndola
“Next season won be an easy season for us if you look at the fixture list with Champions League football to play as early as January 30 so their will be no time between now and then to rest,” Nyirenda said in a
post-match interview at woodlands after beating Power.
“It will be a difficult season to try and keep players form and we will just have to work out a mechanism to give each player a breather.”
Meanwhile, Nyirenda said Zesco was looking forward to another good year in both the league and cup and also for a much improved outing in Africa.
Zesco face Mahare United of Kenya in the preliminary round with winner over the two legs booking a 1st round date with 1985 Africa club champions cup runners-up Africa Sport of Cote d’ Ivoire.
