Embrace World Cup Trophy Tour-Maradas

Africa should embrace the 2010 Fifa World Cup tour, Fifa representative Emmanuel Maradas has said.

“It depends on all of us to work hard to make sure the world cup (In south Africa) is a success,” Maradas said.

Meanwhile, the world cup Trophy went on public display at Mulungushi Hall in Lusaka to all those that managed to get limited free tickets to view the iconic accolade today after being unveiled this morning at an official breakfast ceremony attended by vice president George Kunda.

  1. Whats the point when we know No Zambian will play at the World Cup thanks to Galu and his so called coach Renard.
    Can somebody do a ka “Italian Job” on the trophy. hahaaa, maybe we could have it made into a movie made in Zambia, “The Zambian Job” with Kafupi as main actor hahaaaa.
    enjoy your day brothers……

  2. This kelenka, Emmanuel Maradas, is still around? He tried to sell us snake oil when Zambia was rebuilding its team in c1993.

  3. Agony is to fail to quality to the world cup 2010 and have the world cup in your midst on display ! our players should go and have a look at it for themselves, maybe they need the inspiration.

  4. #4 spot on…let those chaps be the one to look at it, and may be they will be inspired for 2014….very diappointing performance from Zambia.

  5. It puzzles me to find some wankers find so much satisfaction in watching a trophy on display rather than winning it. What kind of ambition is it??
