Zesco United suffered their first Group A defeat in the CAF Champion League when they went down 2-0 away in Morocco to Wydad Casablanca in Rabat on Tuesday evening.
The result saw Zesco tumble from 1st to 3rd in Group A after making a bright start on June 18 when they beat Al Ahly 3-2 in Ndola.
Wydad took a 1-0 lead into the break when Walid Karti headed in Ismail El Haddad delivery in the box in the 13th minute.
Zesco’s best chance of the match came in the 33rd minute that John Chingandu fluffed his shot on the goalline before Wydad goalkeeper Zouhair Laaroubi collected the ball.
Wydad put the result beyond doubt in the 52nd minute when David Owino scored an own goal after failing to deal with Reda Hajhouj’s shot on the near post.
Zesco pressured but failed to break down an organized Wydad who held on to cement top spot in Group A.
Zesco drop to 3rd placed on 3 points, tied with second placed ASEC Mimosa who won 2-1 away at bottom placed and winless Al Ahly on Tuesday in Cairo.
Wydad are top on maximum 6 points at the end of match day two.
Zambian football is all the time like that! just like lungu, he is good when he is drank and dancing, but when he needs to deliver, he falls short,,,
Our soccer is like a yo-yo. You can be its fan, but I advise AGAINST investing your emotions in it coz you’ll collapse one day…
Yes, our soccer is as unpredictable as GBM – He can assault his wife today and produce a mASTERS dEGLEE tomorrow!
Letter to the ICC, EU, USA, SADC, AU, COMESA:
How can there be free and fair elections in Zambia when Lungu:
1. is killing opposition supporters
2. campaigns on and promotes the unprecedented PF violence and killing machine
3. is preventing opposition campaigning by brutality
4. ordering Police not to protect opposition who are killed by PF
5. ordering public media not to cover the opposition
6. using State resources and media to lie to the majority illiterate and ignorant Zambians that PF are the ones funding infrastructure projects
7. invades business trading areas by allocating cadres stall spaces by force (just like Mugabe)
Ba Ndobo….I personally don’t see how Lungu fits into football. Because we have people like you in the country…so shallow minded and cannot think and criticize contructively..Zambia will never go far.
Some of you guys like Ndobo that comment about football..you can’t even play football yourself. Given a chance to kick a stationary ball, chances are that you may even miss it.
Yes. That is why we are commenting because we are not professional footballers but ardent soccer fans. Who told you that only footballers should comment on football?
Iwe Peter Njobvu, this chap was talking about Lungu. What has Lungu to do with the Zesco loss??
Who says you have to be a footballer to criticise football? Are we all politicians yet we criticise politicians? Are we prostitutes when we criticise prostitutes? Are we priests when we criticise pastors? Cant I criticise poor bread even if Im not a baker?
Ndobo is an idiot
As* ***e
Some of you guys you are just busy isaulting our president instead of talking about football.let’s talk football
But football is in Zambia, ZESCO Utd is in Zambia. and who is the President of Zambia? Edgar Chagwa Lungu and he is also soccer fan #1. So we cant divorce football from the presidency malume
Peter uli cipuba kanshi!!
It only exposes the foolishness of an individual, how do u mix yo dirt and grave hatred for someone with football? It’s high time u grew up.
I’m a non partisan and I would never allow anyone insult a leader, for your own information whether you like it or yes, the Lungu u keep on insulting is a constitutional elected president so is the one you want would be.
Some of you just support blindly without looking at real issues, your favorite candidate will not eliminate the poverty Zambia is facing now, but your Maturity and productivity is the only thing to bring food in your home. # Ndobo you should grow into a responsible citizen than insulting people without solution.!!!!!!!! Zambia is our country and it’s our duty to make it better.
And he pays for soccer fans at chilata and other coliseum.
Teti mu cite develop imitontonkanishishe ya so. Lungu has nothing to do with Zesco’s loss. The course of wisdom is to go to the drawing board and see where Zesco went wrong. Period.
BEFORE WE FIND WERE ZESCO WENT WRONG WE MUST START WITH lUNGU HE IS THE CAUSER OF ALL THIS ULIMUPUBA IWE
It must be as a result of HH pretending to play football in Kalingalinga a game he never even played at primary school
Ba Ndobo
I think you are irrelevant to football, Just simple 1 plus 1 you will say Nshima. We are talking of Football here and you open your careless mouth to criticise Lungu. Are you epileptic. You must be a dangerous turncoat with a special skill in opening your mouth carelessly
Epileptics are people who are quite normal. They are just suffering from a disease.
