The Zambia national team this afternoon had their first feel of the turf at the Stade De La Reunification Stadium which is the venue for the quarter final match against Morocco tomorrow.
The Chipolopolo shifted base on Thursday from Buea to Douala after finishing second in Group D and have been using the Bonamousadi stadium for their trainings as the 30,000 seater Stade De La Reunification is reserved for tournament matches.
Morocco will feel at home at the gigantic stadium as they played all their three group matches at the same venue.
The players completed what was more like an inspection of the pitch before their afternoon training.
Zambia and Morocco clash in the third quarter final match of the competition in a game that will kick off at 18h00.
Hosts Cameroon and Mali already booked their places in the semi finals after picking victories over Congo DR and Congo Brazaville respectively.
The final quarter final match to be played on Sunday is between Guinea and Rwanda.
ZAMBIA 2-MOROCCO 0
We will be in trouble from our opponents “Morroco” if we don’t change strategy in the middle and up-front. We need to be sharper than we were in the three previous matches
I’m a Zambian, for 2 years in Gaborone, NO shook team had beaten my team
The skill
°======
1- shooting, passing and receiving skills were paramount.
2- score at least 5 to 0 in the first 30 minutes based on NO DRIBBLING but once only and where it is impossible to pass.
3- Number 2 and 4 should always be closer to the goalkeeper and numbers 7 and 11 must maintain their wings backed by numbers 8 and 10 respectively.
4- Numbers 3, 5 and 6 must balls to 9 to score and or to the left and right wings to score. Mathematics is involved
We needed players like Rodger Kola. Why they dropped him is a mystery.
Just score Zambia
