ABA BENA NI KATWISHI.IF IT WERE ZESCO UNITED I WOULD HAVE BEEN 100% SURE OF VICTORY.
True ZANACO is worrisome. They have not been convincing in the league so far, but naba Ahly bene they are a team of yesteryears.
So we hope for the best ZANACO.
As long as Warriors ilelusa we shall support anything Zambian especially outside mother ZED.
