  1. Equatorial Guinea must be ashamed for fielding a foreign team. Good we kicked their butts and I am glad Ivory Coast will complete the trampling. 

    • Tja Maarten, Je had het al wel tuessn pot en pint laten weten . maar het blijft toch een gebeurtenis die ik met gemengde gevoelens ervaar.Desalnietemin .Succes !!!Toy-Toy !!!Draag jouw kennis van e-didactiek mee naar de bank en laat ook wat terugstromen van jouw kennis over kennismanagement naar ons

  2. Ba Gift Kampamba what were you saying about Zambia’s chances. Theses boys are more committed than you ever have been. Look at Nathan Sinkala, Hichani, Chisamba Lungu & the rest of them..bakali abaice aba. Shame on you Gift no wonder wapwila. Waba…………..

  3. I am a king at my work place today, every soccer lover wants to have a word with me. We are proud of you boys. Iyi Yesu, Tuleyabuka unomuku.

  4. It has taken us 19 years to build this team since the Gabon crush.I didnt know its hard to rebuild a team but now we have a team.They must now take every game as it comes.Congratulations boys.You have really made us proud.I wouldnt mind to say donchi kubeba as your celebration went.Congrats again.GOD BLESS CHIPOLOPOLO AND ZAMBIA.

  5. He takes all our set pieces, but I am wondering why he cannot hit one like the way Asamoah Gyan took his. Set pieces into the 18 area go straight to the keeper. The one at goal goes above the goal and not even close. After taking so many set pieces, we should start having confidence. I like the boy, but he should now be feared when he is taking a set piece.

    His goal in Angola during the last AFCON was pure class though.

    • First class srevice at a very reasonable price. Advice given helped my problem a great deal and it was very reassuring to be able to discuss my skin disorder with a qualified Consultant Dermatoligist within hours of my enquiry as opposed to a NHS referral which could take weeks. Highly recommended.

  6. Rainford is definately a great asset in our national team with great development potential. In his best form, I can’t help but think that we could actually bring the trophy home this time.

  7. The secret behind zambia doing well is that we don’t have big headed players or big egos in the squard anymore and the coach knows what he is doing no matter what happens next the future for zambian football is looking bright and as for Gift Kampamba not giving the team a chance before the games started all i would say is the team he played under was the waste zambia ever assembled does anyone disagree?

  8. lets thank our god that we have a good team now, gift we gave you all our surport wen you were playin its your time also to give it to your friends you wont lose anything mwana, the boys are smply playin good football, GO ZAMBIA GO…

  9. Helpful information. Lucky me I discovered your web site accidentally, and I am stunned why this twist of fate didn’t took place earlier! I bookmarked it.
