Sunzu back in action

Chipolopolo defender Stopilla Sunzu has returned to action after recovering from a knee injury that troubled him for half a year.

Last Friday, Sunzu featured for his DR Congo side TP Mazembe in their 1-1 draw with Algerian club ES Setif in a CAF Confederation Cup match.

He was in the starting line-up just few days after Mazambe registered him to play in the Confederation Cup.

This was Sunzu’s first game since March 26 when he played for Zambia in the away 2014 World Cup qualifier against Lesotho in Maseru.

He missed Zambia’s June back-to-back World Cup qualifiers against Sudan and Lesotho after undergoing a knee operation in May.

Sunzu’s recovery is good news for Chipolopolo ahead of the September 8, crucial World Cup qualifier against Group D Leaders Ghana away in Kumasi.

Zambia must beat The Black Stars to advance to the final round of the qualifying campaign for Brazil 2014.

  1. Ok. But Sunzu should know that there is also Bronson Chama and Konwani Mutonga to compete with..

    • BaNostra, my friend, please make a concerted effort in spelling people’s names correctly.

  2. Good that Sunzu is back, he is a pillar for Zambia and its also good for his career and his new wife… But ba LT report professionally, where was the game played and who scored?

  3. Imwe naimwe ba Nostradamus.
    Sunzu is an experienced, world top class defender. You can’t compare him with Kondwani or Bronson.
    .

    • Surely you cant compare Sunzu with Bronson Chama and Kondwani Mtonga. At the moment one can only think of these two if Sunzu is injured.

  4. Let’s all understand that when you rate one player better than another it means you are actually COMPARING them!!!!
