Zambia wrap-up their training camp tomorrow afternoon with a warm-up game against Young Zanaco at Sunset Stadium in Lusaka.
Faz technical director Honor Janza said Wednesday evening that the Zambia bench had changed their earlier scheduled plans to have a workout match with the Under-17 side at Nkoloma stadium on Thursday afternoon.
“The Under-17 team is not ready because most of them are too young to play against the senior team,” Janza said.
“So we opted for a lower division team with players of an average age of 20 to play the game with.”
Janza said the game will kickoff at 15:30 at Zanaco’s home ground.
The Under-17 is in camp under ex-international Evans Sakala preparing for their friendly game against their South African counterparts whom they host on Saturday at Nkoloma.
South Africa Under-17 is expected to arrive on Thursday at midday on a South African Airways flight from Johannesburg.
And the Zambia senior team on Wednesday held one training session in the morning at Nkoloma Stadium before taking the afternoon off.
Zambia will depart for Comoros on Friday afternoon.
Faz communications officer Erick Mwanza said the team will fly out on a chartered plane at 14:00 hours from Lusaka International Airport.
Zambia will face Comoros away in Moroni on Sunday in the two sides’ penultimate 2012 Africa Cup Group C qualifier.
