Share

Chipolopolo on Sunday begun life minus expelled captain Kabaso Chongo with victory over South Africa in friendly match away in Rustenburg.

Zambia rallied to beat Bafana Bafana 2-1 just a day after defender Chongo of TP Mazembe was banished from camp for unknown reasons.

Russia based striker Evans Kangwa went on to captain Zambia in the match that produced three second half goals.

After a goalless first half, Bafana led when Keagan Dolly puting the home side in front on 65 minutes.

Zesco United winger Kelvin Mubanga led Zambia’s superb comeback with an equaliser before Chaniza Zulu scored the winner ten minutes from time.

Lumwana Radiants’ little known Zulu benefitted from a fantastic build up to net his debut goal for Zambia.

Chipolopolo were coming from a 2-1 loss to Kenya played 48 hours ago.

Zambia started the October friendly diet with a 1-0 home win over Malawi in Lusaka last Wednesday.

Coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic is preparing Zambia for the November back to back 2021 AFCON qualifiers against Botswana.

  1. It is simply shocking why you PF are disheartened by that result. Maybe it is because the good mature goalkeeper is from Choma??
    Zambia is playing good football, especially playing with organized South Africa. Players to watch:
    – Lusambo, any position.
    – Chilongoshi, is Good..there any other player on left back?
    – Benson Sakala, unbelievable maturity… Did he ever play abroad?

  2. iwe Nostradamus kalale. We have had Mweene with roots from Choma and we have not tribalised our triumphs. Why do you wanna split our nation? Chipolopolo this is the kind of result we have been asking for. If from now onwards promise to give us this kind of satisfactory result we will say the hour has come for AFCON absenteeism to end.

  3. This issue of we played well must come to an end. For clarity, I wouldn’t mind playing badly all the time but Winning the games all the time. Zambia has good coaches but bad players, do you have talent in Zambia of the likes of Khama Billiad. No, we don’t. The fluke of Africa cup 2012 really clouded us further. The government is failing, the economy is in shambles even before covid, and even just football we are failing
