Green Eagles not rattled by Zesco’s ABSA Cup triumph

Green Eagles coach Aggrey Chiyangi says Zesco United’s 4-1 win over Zanaco in 2019 ABSA Cup victory is not a factor heading into their 2019 FAZ Super Division title decider on June 29 at National Heroes Stadium in Lusaka.

Eagles and the defending league champions Zesco clash for on June 29 to decide the this seasons’ FAZ Super Division title.

“We are not shaken by Zesco United’s 4-1 win at the weekend. Every game is different, and this Saturday will be a whole different game,” Chiyangi told The Daily Nation.

“Yes, Zesco played well, showed maturity from individual players because of experience.

“So I expect a tough game, it will not be an easy game .we are not under pressure, pressure is on Zesco who are looking for an eighth title.”

Eagles are chasing their debut league triumph and should they do that; the Choma-based side will become the first side outside the football hotspots of the Midlands and Copperbelt to win the FAZ Super Division crown.

Zesco on the other hand will become the third most successful club and move them one behind Mighty Mufulira Wanderers and four adrift of Nkana.
