Wedson on song at Songo

Charismatic Zambian trainer Wedson Nyirenda has described his first six months at Mozambique club HCB Songo as good.

Nyirenda joined Songo from Zesco United last January.

The ex-Zambia Under-17 coach said God and his passion for football has kept him going in Mozambique.

“By the grace of God my stay here in Mozambique has been so good.

“I think I have been accorded the respect that I have never received from my own people in Zambia at clubs I have worked,” Nyirenda told Radio Icengelo Sports.

Nyirenda’s Songo currently leads the national league on 22 points after a round of 11 matches.

“I have managed to turn HCB Songo into a force to reckon with within this very short time,” he said.

Nyirenda added:”What is keeping me going is the hand of the almighty God who sent me to this place in the first place.”

The ex-international has so far recruited three Zambian players at Songo, namely, Jacob Mupeta, Nicholas Zulu and Lewis Macha.
