Zesco United have failed to qualify to the 2016 CAF Champions League finals.
They were beaten 2-0 by Mamelodi Sundowns of South Africa in Pretoria on Saturday evening to bow our 3-2 on aggregate.
Goals from Anthony Laffor in the 5th minute and Percy Tau, who had tormented Zesco in the first half of the first leg, scored the decisive goal in the 64th minute.
Chapwa! Next
Just bad for Lwandamina, giving away National coach job to useless Nyerenda.
Otherwise Zesco played great soccer; that Chaila, Mwanza, Simon, Mwape , and those foreign defenders were all good.
Zesco can never play in the finals. Only Nkana have played in the finals of this competition. Niba Nkana chabe ?oana
Rubbish!! Nkana lost the final at their home turf to JSK
attitude like this is why we will never progress at anything in this world.. instead of everyone supporting Zambia’s current representative on the African stage you are busy hating and day dreaming it was nkana. i will never understand this mentality.
Our guys showed no stamina and the slow style of play in the modern football is totally obsolete. Zambian football should be awake to the fact that football has become physical, and other than it being a spot, it is also a stern competition! you have to employ agility, aggression, speed and the fighting spirit, all of which Zesco failed to manifest. That was dissapointing . Realistically speaking we cant stand any serious team the way we are approaching this spot.
The team was ejected. Why is Lwandamina still on the job? …
The guys tried but you could see that the game was not read properly by the coach. Chama was not fit, neither was Were and Ching’andu coupled with poor officiating is what killed football. Coach should have read in the first half that these three players where not fit and he should have brought in Mbombo and Mwelwa. This is technical and if you can’t read the line its always a problem and you are bound to loose. Lets look forward to iron out some of these technical failures and be quick to spot them then you will do better. Don’t bury your heads in the lose ZESCO look forward to the local league and try again next season!
Try a foreign coach now-a good one on that matter!
Ba Zesco please look for a foreign coach to help the team ……George is a hopeless coach tactically poor..Zesco would have buried the game in ndola by 4 goals…
That performance was very disappointing. Were, Chota were out of form, Mwanja was too selfish. I couldn’t believe it was the same Zesco team playing.
Try rigging guys.
Lwandamina is a good tactician but he is lacks passion. How can a losing coach be seated with folded arms and just watch his side go down like it happened? He cannot inspire his players with that kind of bossy attitude. Even just a spectator can’t just be motionless. The opposite was true for his counterpart, who knew what was at stake; He must learn from Zidane, Mourinho, Guardiola, Klopp, Pitso Mosimane, Muhsin Ertu?ral, etc.
