  1. Ba Nyirenda nama past papers bachilamo. Let’s b progressive. For Nsabata it’s a deserved call up

  2. Comment: ba Wada avoid experiments some players dont play in foreign countries but you still calling them

  3. When l look at names of players picked, 9 if I’m not mistaken, they are from Zesco,!!!!!!!!!!mmmmmmm what a selection.

  4. This coach is losing it very fast. Mbesuma has just come out of a long injury and straight into the team. Singuluma, I wonder how often he plays for TP Mazembe. Kennedy Mweene? Winstone Kalengo? Jackson Mwanza?

  5. I wonder why this zambian coach has left sinkala,chisamb,mbola ftom xe squard.he can’t b ashemad on hw young lags are performin

  6. Fire Wedson nyilenda as national soccer team coach let beston chambishi be the senior national team coach and his under 20 national team continue as senior team including R kalaba,collins mbesuma ,nathan sinkala and chisamba lungu.The rest retire them.
