  1. This is very good for young Mwepu. These boys have a great future in football. The team needs to work on defensive weaknesses and next world cup, they will be a force to reckon with, after all they are African champions!

  2. Italians new that with Mwepu they were going to loose so made sure that he was out of the pitch. Congrats Mwepu for your achievement.
