Warri Wolves this evening stunned Zesco with three goals in the second half to beat their visitors from Zambia 3-0 in the two sides Orange CAF Confederations Cup first round, first leg match played in the Niger River Delta town of Warri in Nigeria.
The two sides were locked at 0-0 as the match approached the final quarter with all three goals coming in a space of nine minutes.
Eddy Ogude put Wolves ahead in the 73rd minute and team mate Gift Atulena added a brace in the 77th and 81st minute.
Zesco have been set a herculean task in the return leg and must score four goals to reach the second round of the Confederations Cup.
The match will be played on April 3 at either the Trade Fair Grounds in Ndola or Arthur Davies Stadium in Kitwe should the pitch at the former venue not be ready in time after the turf was recently re-laid.
Too bad, ZESCO. It’s definitely a herculean task in the second leg.
Too bad zesco it will be difficult in Ndola

It will be a different ball game in the return leg, Zesco can equally score 3 or even 4 goals in the forthcoming match. Stay focussed, dont lose concentration in any particular game. This is what costs Zambian teams matches. Please lets include players in the team based on their current form and not past glory. There are a few tired legs in the Zesco defence, infact this cost them the last Champions league game last year. Careless tackles that led to red card and a few other bookings. Never lose hope and all the best to the technical bench and players.
it is not over until…. the ninety something minute! heads up boys! four is just a number.
