Nkana’s good fortune in 2013 continued on Wednesday when the FAZ Super Division leaders beat Zambia 2-1 in a practice match at Nkana Stadium in Wusakile, Kitwe.
Zambia entered camp in Ndola on Monday to prepare for the 2014 Brazil World Cup qualifiers against Lesotho and Sudan on 8 June and June 15 respectively at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola.
Defender Christopher Munthali handed Nkana a 10th minute lead when he tapped in a Kelvin Mubanga speculative cross from close range before Reynold “Sate Sate” Kampamba headed in Kalampas second beating keeper Rabson Mucheleng’anga in the Chipolopolo goal in the 44th minute.
Southampton striker Emmanuel Mayuka converted a 57th minute penalty give Zambia consolation goal after Munthali hacked Collins Mbesuma in the box.
Striker Bornwell Mwape had a goal disallowed in the 22nd minute after Nkana keeper Makasa Mufwaya had parried Mbesuma’s free kick in his way.
In the second half, coach Herve Renard made several changes withdrawing Mucheleng’anga for Red Arrows keeper Danny Munyau while Noah Chivuta went in for Malambo before Salulani Phiri replaced Mbesuma and Jimmy Chisenga swapped with Davies Nkausu.
Starting line-ups
Zambia: Rabson Mucheleng’anga, Davies Nkausu, Joseph Musonda, Kondwani Mtonga, Emmanuel Mbola, Chisamba Lungu, Shadreck Malambo, Alex Ng’onga, Bornwell Mwape, Collins Mbesuma, Emmanuel Mayuka.

Kalampaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!
You Kalampa won because we didn’t use Jacob Mulenga & Chamanga our best strikers. We are saving them for big game against Lesotho.
And we used Nkausu pa central defence instead of Joseph Musonda.
Nkana!
This jus goes to show that the Zambian league is gettin harder or is it the national team is gettin poorer???
hahaha, both ways
The latter. Nkana have just come from the 2nd division and they are beating the national team! Expect the worst against Lesotho
This is embarrassing.Maybe we should just disband this team and save more money apart from that we will save from subsidies.
Long time ago, a very long time ago, National Team ukulusa kuli club wali mupamba – it never even used to happen! Guys mulebako serious!
Awe BUFI. The national team lost two times to Mighty in the 80s.
Yaba, first well done Sate Sate. Now back to business. Ba Z, iliko bad, we’ll come and watch you on the 8th & 15th but we’ll guard our dear hearts and expect anything. Penalty?? Mwalilaba ukwingishafye!!!
But sure these guys are useless. Ukwingisha na penalty??? And you cal it National Team….fuseke…
What kind of a headline is this ba Lt?
Chizungu nichovuta. “Zambia made to pay by Nkana” would have sufficed
If so, then let Nkana play Lesotho on behalf of the National team. Nkana are Zambians so no issues with FIFA.
Zambia vs Lesotho line-up.
Makasa Mufwaya, Noel Phiri, Billy Mwanza (Captain), Christopher Munthali, Masausto Zimba, Sydney Kalume, Mwila Kabwe, Kelvin Mubanga, Lottie Nyimbili, Reynold Kampamba, Festus Mbewe.
Coach: Kambwili.
Kalampa!!!! the return of the kings in Zambian football. Ba KALU open your eyez iyi yena te boom just NKANA to play the two coming fixtures.
From being embarrassed by Kabwe Warriors following a draw at home to good fortunes? Ba LT be consitent in your reporting and also provide insightful headings.
That aside, the scoreline of this friendly mirrors in graphic detail the state of our game. Infact as Renards attempts some changes, there will be areas that will be shaky.Looking at the line up for this particular game it seems to me the defence was the weakest link. Not because of incompetence of the individuals players but the fact they have not played together for a while. The urgent task now is to ensure the new and old players jell. Whether or not this will happen before the two impending international assignments only time will tell.
Wish the boys the best of lucky though.
the coach is lucky its in Zambia where under performing is tolerated and things are based on past glory.. Angola did not waste time kicking him out when they realized the big mistake of appointing him coach. His the only chap who still believes in the 2012 squad but these guys have struggled to win matches since the ivory coast final. its clear the coach cannot see how long ago it has taken meaning the serial free fall of Zambia will continue. How can mayuka be in the squad when he hardly plays at his club???? the boy has no regular game time which makes him very rusty. i bet the period for drawing games is now over and its time for the losing streak.
NALELOEEE BA NKANA BA WINA X 20
LETS USE NKANA NATIONAL TEAM FOR THE LESOTHO GAME
uyu wena musebanya. i agree with most of the comments. let players who are scoring be in the national team and not Mayuka. Kampamba is a better player than Mayuka and Chamanga. let the boy feature in the national team. The biggest problem we have at the moment is FAZ. They know that if Sate Sate starts playing, European teams will buy him and FAZ will not do their monkey triks to benefit them. Nkana Fans can easily kick their *******
Pleeeeeeesssseeee, lets use Kalampa against Lesotho and Namibia. Nasumina Nkana the original chipolopolo. Nalelo ee ba Nkana ba winner.
We will reserve Nkana for the Ghana game I am sure they will win hahaha
