Zambia take on Ghana at the Royal Bafokeng in the Cosafa Cup plate semifinal looking to redeem themselves after they were booted out of the race of the tournament final.
Chipolopolo failed in their bid to defend their title after losing 5-4 on post-match penalties to Namibia after a scoreless quarterfinal.
Their failure saw them relegated to the Plate category where they face Ghana who were ejected by Madagascar 2-1 in their quarterfinal tie on Monday night.
Janza says the match is do-or-die despite the deflated interest in Zambia’s exploits after their Cosafa Cup flop.
“The early exit was a setback but we are banking on our comeback,” Janza said.
“A win will take back our morale. The players have been prepared psychologically so that we can stand firm.”
The winner will in the final on May 29 at the same venue face victor of the other Plate semifinal involving hosts South Africa and Malawi.
Banking on lost glory! Well,maybe something might get attained given Ghana’s credentials anyway.Can’t wait to watch this match,whether we lose or win,it’s go Zambia go…period!
No underdogs in footbal anymore dont leave in the past glory but face the real situation,if u cant strategise ur gone so its time to work hard and dont play names
Janza is mad. How can he refer to a match of losers as a do or die. This is stupidity of the worst kind.
This is the first time I have heard that phrase “seeking consolation win”…I am surprised this rubbish made it to the website as news…truly laughable.
The article doesn’t even mention when they are playing Ghana, it’s left me just as ignorant as I was before I read it…improve your writing guys
What is going on at FIFA hotel in Zurich. Has someone we know been ‘cuffed. Please update.
You mean your FAZ president? No. Out of the seven netted so far his name is not appearing. Investigations are still going on.
marabish yeka yeka … do we even have innovative football players anymore?
For sure Janza is mad…this chap should be fired. He has been given a chance and has failed to impress
