Mbesuma back for Pirates

Share

Fit-again Zambia striker Collins Mbesuma has been included in the Orlando Pirates 18-member team to face Esperance in Saturday’s away CAF Champions League semi-final match in Tunisia.

The ankle injury he sustained in the MTN8 quarter-final clash against SuperSport United had sidelined Mbesuma for two months.

He was part of the Pirates squad that left for Tunisia on Wednesday night ahead of their return match preceded by a goalless first leg in South Africa.

During the injury layoff Mbesuma missed several matches for both Zambia and Pirates.

He missed Chipolopolo’s 2014 World Cup qualifier against Ghana which Zambia lost 2-1 in Kumasi and the recent Brazil friendly match in China.
