Beston ‘Quicksilver’ Chambeshi has paid tribute to the late Nchanga Rangers coach Fighton ‘Big Fye’ Simukonda.
The duo were team mates at both Zambia and Nkana in the 80’s.
“It’s a big loss to soccer fraternity and to the country,” Chambeshi said.
“I played with him at club and national team what a wonderful man he was to work with and he was smart in doing his job. May his soul rest in peace.”
Simukonda, 58 died on February 15 at Konkola Mine Hospital in Chililabombwe following a two month battle with Diabetes.

Dear all
It is with a lot of sadness I read about the death of one of my best and loyal friends. Fighton and I worked close together with various National Teams, and he was a fantastic and competent coach.
I will miss him.
May he rest in peace.
