Poll: Mweene the fan’s man of the match against Cameroon

Chipolopolo fans have voted for Kennedy Mweene as the best performer for Zambia on Saturday when the Chipolopolo drew 1 – 1 with Cameroon.

According to a poll on the Zambianfootball.co.zm website the shot stopper leads the poll by more than 50% of the votes.

While there was debate prior to the match if the veteran keeper should hand the mantle to Zesco United’s Jacob Banda, the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations winner who was voted best goalkeeper at that tournament rolled back the years to help Zambia earn a precious point away.

He made about five crucial saves in the game and was only beaten from the spot.

Other stand out performers on the day include Ziyo Tembo who had a splendid debut alongside his central defense partner Stopilla Sunzu.

Ziyo was massive both in the air and on the ground.

He was unfortunate to concede the penalty as he showed his never say die attitude when he manage to recover after he was beaten by the striker with a sharp turn in the move leading up to he penalty.

Fackson Kapumbu also had a solid game at left back while the Base midfield combo of Kondwani Mtonga and Misheck Chaila showed a lot of tactical discipline.

  1. I said it before in previous threads that Kennedy Mweene is number one. I mentioned that there is a big gap between Mweene and his number two and that his shoes are too big to fit for his number two. This should pose a challenge to the other goalkeepers. They have to prove themselves that they can do it like Mweene or even better. On the defence, at least we have Ziyo Tembo and Sunzu. Kapumbu has also impressed at right back. My worry is right back. Ba Kabaso bamungulu sana. Adrian Chama should be released from the national team.

  2. Mweene Wil B Owez The Best Goal Keeper, I Wonder Why His Club Is Nt Giving Him Enough Game Time. For Sure, In Defense We Ar Nw Beta Off! Thanks To Wada Wada, For Giving Ziyo Tembo A Chance To Prove Himself His Capability That He Can Of Which He Did And Why Was Chicken Sidelining Him. Mr Wada Wada, Be An Inclusive Coach For Oldies As Wel As The Young. Otherwise I Wish We Had U Earlier B4 The Afcon 2017 Qualifiers.

    • Mweene of late is keeping the goal posts after Onyango got injured. Sundowns have 3 top goal keepers my man. Onyango, Mweene and Sandilands. It’s not like any of the three is better than the other. Its just that there can only be 1 goa keeper. They are all very good and world class goal keepers.

  3. Congratulation K.Mweene for making up,you are indeed the best and you realy deserve that position.
    and thanks chipolopolo guys for good coordination continue with the same spirit and work extra hard for us as Zambians to be the best on the continent level.
    Best regards K.Kelvin phD

  4. Billy is right . Kennedy still has it and tactically has the edge and gives confidence to his backline , he’s is also very vocal so the defenders are not left wondering unlike Jacob.

  5. @ Chibz…….. u wonder why chi Lwandamina was sidelining Ziyo! dont u wonder also abt Kapumbu and Chongo and Fwayo and Chisamba and Kola and Kangwa???!!! Hell we shud have made it to Afcon 2017 with these boys. Compare this group with “Potbelly Lwamdamina’s” favourites Katema, Chepeshi, “MKandawire, Zulu, Luchanga, Patson! Sabotage thats what it was! There are no sharp reporters to grill Lwanda on his stupidity.

  6. Thats True SLIM! Lwandamina Saled Us Off Man, This Squard Is Completly Diferent. Jst As He Did It Wth Zesco Man! Obviously He Was Jst Too Bayast In Player Selection! Anyway, We Had His Tim And Apreciat Also For Wat He Has Done For The Nation Team Even Though He Faild Us At Some Point!

  7. sometimes i wonder wen i read comments comparing mweene wth jacob here. Look at joe hart ed others, u dot jst change goal keepers lyk that. Abit of history efford chabala fro 1984 – 1993 death reason
