Zesco United’s opponents in the preliminary round of the 2016 African Champions League Al Ghazala Wau of South Sudan are scheduled to arrive in the country on Friday afternoon.
Zesco and Al Ghazala clash on Saturday in the first leg tie of the preliminary round at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola.
“Our opponents from South Sudan, Al Ghazala Wau Football Club are expected to arrive in the country tomorrow at 14h20,” Zesco media officer Katebe Chengo said on Thursday.
Al Ghazal were reported to have kept Zesco guessing on their arrival for this Saturday’s encounter.
“Finally, we communicated to them through the South Sudan Football Association,” Chengo added.
Al Ghazala, who finished second in the league, were a last minute replacement of Atlabar after the South Sudan champions opted to play in the Confederation Cup.
Why people don’t want to comment, is it for security seasons, so sensitive team.
