Hichani Himonde Injury Scare Minor

Zambia defender Hichani Himonde is expected to be back in action this week after sustaining an injury on Africa Cup duty away in Uganda on Saturday.

Himonde collided with goalkeeper Kennedy Mweene and was substituted in the second half during Zambia’s 2013 Africa Cup qualifier against Uganda in Kampala.

Zambia beat Uganda 9-8 on post-match penalties after the match finished 1-1 on aggregate over the two legs.

The TP Mazembe player said his thigh injury was not very serious and that he would be fit for the clubs Caf Champions League semifinal final leg trip away to Tunisia this weekend where they face Esperance on October 20.

Mazembe and Esperance finished scoreless in the first leg on October 7 in Lubumbashi.

“The Doctor says I have to off training for two days and will be fine after that,” Himonde said.

“Our goalkeeper hit me on my thigh and all I have to do is apply some ice but I will also have to see the (Mazembe) Doctor to see what can be done.”
