Forward Simon Bwalya says Nkana are prepared to face Zanaco in next week’s Charity Shield semifinal match in Kitwe.
Nkana and Zanaco clash on Saturday in the semifinals of the season opener Charity Shield dubbed Samuel “Zoom” Ndhlovu.
Bwalya said Nkana are looking forward to the season opening match.
He said winning the first competitive match in 2017 will set the tone for the new season.
“We have prepared very well as a team,” Bwalya said.
This match will also mark Nkana coach Zeddy Saileti’s first competitive game in charge, since he was promoted to head coach in January, following the axing of Aggrey Chiyangi.
“We will take the match seriously as we want to give our new coach (Saileti) a victory,” he said.
The Samuel Zoom Ndhlovu Charity Shield will signal the start of the 2017 football season.
“A win will give us the direction for the 2017 session,” Bwalya remarked.
