Defending champions Zesco United have been dumped out of the 2015 Barclays Cup by Green Buffaloes at the semi-final stage of the competition.
Midfielder Sebastian Mwansa struck the only goal of this lunch-time match at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka as the Army outfit defeated a depleted Zesco side.
Zesco head coach George Lwandamina, goalkeeper Jacob Banda, defender Dauti Musekwa and striker Winston Kalengo are away on Zambia duty in Dubai to play Egypt in a friendly on Sunday.
It was a dramatic start as Buffaloes took a shock lead via a superbly struck free kick by Mwansa just outside the box after 15 minutes.
Zesco’s attempts to come back into the match proved futile as Bilton Musonda’s Buffaloes held on to the lead to win.
The Ndola side came into this game chasing a double after defending their league title last Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Buffaloes will now face the winners of the second semi-final betweeen Zanaco and Nkwazi in the November final at a venue to be announced.
