  1. I hate Zanaco with a passion.They are a waste of space and should be buried in the annuls of Zambia’s sporting history forever.

  2. Inferiority complex yapa Zed-any individual or team comprising of something like a white man is feared like hell. These arabic teams are the ones your neighbours Mazembe TP have been hammering ma 4-0, but pa Zambia, iyee basungu teti tuteyee nabo-ifyabupuba *****s!!

  3. These parastatal Parasites Zanaco and Zesco are a waste of our tax payers money. Zesco stop the loadshedding. Zanaco hand your capital to treasury

    • ZANACO is no longer a parastatal since the year 2007, but a joint venture owned by Dutch group Rabobank [RABN.UL], Govt, Zambian National Farmers’ Union and Minority Individual shareholders. Dutch group Rabobank [RABN.UL] is the majority shareholder with about 49%, followed by GRZ. It was auctioned by MMD govt in 2007.

    • Thank you for educating me true Zambian. Iam very angry that my home team can’t be sponsored yet loss making Zesco sponsors a team.in fact three teams in Luapula Solwezi etc

  4. The game was lost at Nkoloma stadium. A one all draw at home was as good as a loss. back to the drawing board.

  5. Hard lack ZANACO.
    Please, next time learn to win at home, because it is almost impossible for Zambian team, except for ZESCO, to win away due to our borrowed luxury with the allowances we get. When we go away the only thing we enjoy is 5 Star Hotel & Heft allowances and forget about where we are coming from and the purpose of trip.

  6. Kalampa is a far better team than Zanaco, when i watched the game played in Zambia i knew the chaps had no chance in the return leg. no striker no midfielder to depend on, what a team
