yawn….!
Uganda has organized a couple of friendlies with formidable teams like Congo-Brazzaville and Guinea. The news above post does not state or mention any friendly that Zambia has organized?
NOW IF WE LOOSE TO UGANDA THEN WE BE BUSY CONDEMING PLAYERS TO THE EXTENT OF VICTIMISING THEIR RELATIVES???
No, this time we can use cholera as an excuse
Why Zambia can not arrange such friendly matches instead of taking a football club? what a joke? And why going to SA when the competition will be in North ???
Imagine, the humidity up north is very harsh and you cannot take your team early enough for acclimatization!!
Uva Jaile . Iwe..
. It is the opposite that can work. They should have camped in the north 1-2weeks before the CHAN kick off. A good example is our neighbour Namibia 2weeks camping in Tunisia with a friendly match against that country that ended with a draw.
