Zambia Gets Zimbabwe Friendly

Zambia will face Zimbabwe in an international friendly next month.

Both Faz and Zifa confirmed the friendly match that will be played in Harare on August 10 after agreeing to the game on June 30.

“They (Zambia) are coming to Harare on August 10. We have confirmed that and they will just put something in writing for us,”Zifa chief executive officer Jonathan Mashingaidze told Zimbabwean newspaper Newsday on Thursday.

“We had targeted Malawi, but they seemed to dither, but we had to plan ahead and now we have Zambia.”

Zimbabwe and Zambia will be using the game as warm-up for their 2012 World Cup group qualifying matches against Liberia and Comoros at home and away respectively on September 4.

  1. Bonetti said he wanted a strong team for this friendly. Is Zimbabwe a strong team? shouldn’t we have gone for invincible Botswana?

  2. Why are FAZ officials not quoted in the article? FAZ should take this seriously and ensure the match comes to fruition, otherwise namapulanga will continue to be ranked higher than us.

  3. surely, is Zimbabwe a strong team that Bonetti was talking about? Tunisia wanted a friendly game on the same day with Zambia, why didnt we go for Tunisia instead of Zimbabwe?

  4. Zimbabwe??? This must have been arranged by Kachasu drunks.
    It is embarrasing that Kalu diehard addicts are content with this!

  5. Zimbabwe is almost not qualifying for the games…this is not on, Zim is learning from us..Tunis should have been the place…WE NEED A CHALLENGE PEOPLE!!!
