George Lwandamina has described Saturday’s loss at Green Eagles as the darkest moment with three months gone into his early reign as Zesco United coach.
Eagles flattened Zesco 3-1 to send the three-time champions to their first league defeat of the season.
Zesco were sent reeling with three first half goals that all came in the opening 30 minutes of the first half.
“It was a dark day for Zesco we didn’t play well more especially in our defensive functions,” Lwandamina said.
“They were costly mistakes in the first few minutes and they capitalised on that.
“The game became difficult for us when we were down 3-0 and all the efforts we wanted to put on the pitch were not coming forthwith.”
The defeat sent Zesco tumbling from second to fourth on the table with 18, two behind new leaders Zanaco.
Football standards have really gone to the dogs…. I visited Kachofa Stadium in Muf the other day and could not believe what I found – the stadium is a real shambles and looks like it is located in a war zone!
