  1. Zanaco dont injure our chipolopolo marksman he has a game in lesoth pa weekend so even he is dribling , just allow him to score imwe ma defenders

    • Anyoko, you would make a very good comedian. I think there is more sense in what you have said if you look at it critically. We will all need Mbesuma to be in his best form this weekend.

    • Ba Sata, don’t expect to be spoon fed all the time as you always do with your name sake. The match was palyed in 1996 and it was second round of the same competition. Next time you will ask Lusaka Times to tell you when you had your last meal!!!

    • 1996 at shinde stadium in mufurila against Mighty Mufulira wonderers. I watch the match, Bilton Musonda scored for mighty and Jerry Sikhosana scored for pirates. Mighty lost the game is south africa one nill.

  2. Pa south ama local teams yalikwata ama international players ayengi.elo ifwe bamunomwinefye, so ba zanako uku wina,its a question but a happy & great achievement if it happens.go senssesional zanaco, ba teacher nabafwantamo ka money, go sharp razor at weekend.

  3. LT please get your facts right, Mbesuma is not eligible to play as he only joined pirates this year and therefore does not qualify to play

  4. Iwe so called Zambian, What is the problem for Voltron writing in Bemba. We should be proud to use and promote our vernacular local languages. Go to other countries like SA or Botswana and u would see how our friends honour their mother tongues by using them everywhere i.e in banks, TV programs etc. Its high time we Zambians emulated them. Keep it up Voltron.

    • Ukusebana kuli finshi? Some of the grounds they used in the Africa cup were also condemned. Be proud and content of what you have. After all some more stadia are still under construction right here pa Z.

    • This stadium is good and was used recently during the zone six game. Why do like negative about yourselves. This stadium was recently renovated and is international class.

  5. I am sorry to say that this is the end of the road for Zanaco. I cannot see Zanaco going beyond the Orlando Pirates.
