The Chipolopolo duo both started the match.

The Zambia striker latter saw his 51st minute header go inches wide before he was substituted in the 68th minute.

Mwepu too was substituted a minute before the final whistle.

Meanwhile, Salzburg are third in Group E on 3 points, three behind Liverpool and a further four points adrift of leaders Napoli after three rounds played.
