Chris Katongo says Zambia did not ask for the three points off Sudan and are ready for their aggrieved guests in this Saturday’s 2014 World Cup Group D qualifier at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola.
Zambia picked up three free points in the controversial first leg meeting on June 2, 2012 that Sudan won 2-0 in Khartoum losing the win after fielding an ineligible player.
“I do not know if it is an injustice for them because we follow rules that is why there are rules even in a home there are rules that you put in a house,” Katongo said at the end of Thursday training.
“So there is no way they can say that it is unfair it is the rules that they did not follow . Not us.”
Sudan coach Mazda Abdullah said upon arrival on Thursday that a win in Ndola would go some way in putting to rest the forgettable chapter of the docked three points for bottom placed Sudan who have one point in four games.
“We did not ask for the three points it is them who did not follow the rules,” Katongo said.
“They asked for it by giving away the points.”
Zambia lead Group D on 10 points, one ahead of second positioned Ghana who face third placed Lesotho on Sunday.
Did Kennedy get clearance card that his suspension is over? We have a clean keeper, Munyao, why risky suspended Mweene? Zambia will loose the 3 points too.
Katongo should rest, Pilato Ngonga must playyyyyyyy on Saturday.
@nostradomus uli ibo lo ilikulu
Nostra-dumba$$, Mweene has already served his suspension so get your facts right before exposing yourself.
Sudan also said their player served his suspension. But truly Danny Munyao is better than Mweene, Danny can’t get a red-card. So many risks to use Mweene.
Yes and true, Alex Ngonga is on fire, he will play better than Chris Katongo. But katwishi mwee, because Chi Chris Katongo caliteya last weekend, jealous down.
@Nostradamus, are you a serious soccer fan?
You cannot rest Kennedy Mweene for munyao, seriously. If he impressed you last weekend that’s good but look at the team we played. There were no serious threats at goal. For a red card, tell me which good goal keeper has never been red carded.
Lets be fair enough to give credit to whom it’s due.
just being cautious is the way to go. Can someone at FAZ double check plse? we ae in a:-)celebratory mood. Zambia, Zambia iyaeeeeeee!
Pipo like Nostranda whatever dis animal is called are the ones dat made Renar rest katongo nd Jacob at afcon tho he was not with that. Can Ngonga play like katongo ?We know u demons .So nachiya kumitundu. Take that to yo hate hate party from soccer.
