AUSC Games: Zambia U17 in semi-final after pounding Zim

The Zambia U17 national team has topped the round robin group of the AUSC Zone V men’s football after comprehensively beating Zimbabwe 3 – 0 thanks to a brace by Francisco Mwepu.

Zambia went in the match standing in second position behind their opponents in a battle for top position but the young bullets were in good form and went ahead in the 20th minute.

This is after Nkundu Kunda netted from the spot.

Zambia held on to the lead until half time.

Mwepu then added another in the 63rd minute before he completed his brace in the 84th minute to seal the win for the defending champions.

Zambia will now play in the semi finals on Friday against the team which will come out fourth while Zimbabwe play the team that will finish second.

The battle to avoid playing Zambia is between bottom placed Swaziland who don’t a point and Angola who have one point.

  1. Our junior sides are really doing us proud.

    On another note I’m getting a little worried about Mbesuma. He has had a bit of a long spell of goal drought.

  2. @ Egwugwu of Nike socks and Adidas shorts.Have you ever wondered what ever happened to the stacks of sports Equipment stored at a warehouse in Lusaka under the custody of Kalu the Great ?! He should in all fairness hand them over to Faz.
