Zambia beat Zesco in Levy friendly

Zambia today beat FAZ Super Division side Zesco United in their last training game ahead of Saturdays 2015 Africa Cup Group F qualifier against Mozambique.

Zambia runout 2-1 winners over Zesco at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola where they will host The Mambas in both sides opening Group F qualifier this weekend.

Southampton striker Emmanuel Mayuka put Zambia ahead from the spot after he was fouled in the box by midfielder Simon Silwamba.

This was Mayuka’s first day at practice after arriving late on Tuesday afternoon when he was preceded by defender Stopilla Sunzu of French Ligue 2 club Sochaux who arrived at lunchtime.

Meanwhile, midfielder Mwape Mwelwa equalised for the second placed club before Zambia captain Christopher Katongo headed in the winning goal.

  1. Our National team needs 2 work extra hard on the frontline so that we can start scoring. In the first game I didnt see much until when coach Janza changed the whole team thats when we saw some kind of system ofplay.
    Thanks for good training which has given the coach some good exposure on the players who were not there during the sunday friendly game.

    • This is frustrating, the players who are not supposed to be in team are the ones scoring.

    • Imwe mwebantu imwe, how can a European player come to just score a penalty after a drought of more that 3 years? Nganifyo shileniko abaice babombeko!

  2. Iwe ci Nostradamus, are you thick headed or not? Other players will start scoring only when the two scorers (Mayuka and Katongo) are not even called to participate. Other upcoming strikers fear Katongo and Mayuka’s shadows on the field of play. So my advice to the current coach is to forget the ”witchy” duo.

    • shikulu is rit. @ luapula bize u guys form luapula a sophiscated in witchcraft no wonder you’re craft. ci onenka luapula bize is a strong charm for football players…

    • kekekekekeke, Iwe Matero City uleichindika waumfwa! LOL!! I only have the passion for soccer not bufwiti.

  3. FAZ don’t give us a hell bull-Shi.t of a jersey like the one we have currently… who even design these jerseyies? muti latela matokoso yama jersey if u unveil a rubbi.sh jersey.. siti zavelana
