Micho Seeing Progress From Benin Draw

Share

Chipolopolo coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic insists it is all coming together for his second-string side as they conclude their three-match friendly tour.

Zambia on Tuesday evening drew 2-2 with hosts Benin on the penultimate leg of the tour that began with a 3-1 defeat to Senegal on June 5 in Thies.

The highlight of the June 8 draw in Cotonou saw Chipolopolo rally to take a two-one halftime lead only to squander it when Benin snatched a late equalizer to see the two sides share the spoils.

“So, I am very happy with what we have put in whatever was wrong we need to correct and whatever was right we want to keep it up,” Micho said.

“I believe the Benin match has helped us grow up as a group and as unit.”

Meanwhile, Micho’s teams’ defensive department has not only conceded five goals in two games but they have also out-performed their strikers scoring all three goals.

Chipolopolo are now heading to Khartoum ahead of their June 11 friendly with Sudan at Omdurman.

  1. Micho will always talk about strategy and character but never gives proper direction on what needs to be achieved. Next you will that the has gone for greener pastures. Ask Orlando Pirates, they will tell you

  2. You correct mistakes but go and play Benin. Play Senegal again so that we see that you have corrected mistakes. I think this is a social outing because the players on tour won’t be used in the main games. The players needed are not there to start jellying with the rest of the team. So the real games will be further experiment. Fire this guy
