CHAN Update: Buffaloes, Zesco dominate Zambia XI v Zimbabwe

Zanaco’s Isaac Chansa has gate crashed a Zambia XI comprising of four and five players from Zesco United and Green Buffaloes respectively.

Chipolopolo Boys coach George Lwandamina has named five Green Buffaloes players in his starting line up for this afternoon’s Group D Rwanda CHAN 2016 opener while Lwandamina’s Zesco United has the quartet of goalkeeper Jacob Banda and Dauti Musekwa.

The other two from the Ndola side are Mwape Mwelwa and Clatus Chama.

As earlier revealed by the ZamFoot Crew,  Lwandamina has named Buchizya Mfune, Adrian Chama and Stephen Kabamba in defence.

Joining the trio from Buffaloes are skipper Chris Katongo and holding midfielder Jack Chirwa.Zambia v ZIm

Chirwa is expected to operate as the box to box midfieder, the role he played against Kenya in the African Cup of Nations qualifier last year.

With Chirwa in the engine room, Isaac Chansa,  will push further up in the no.10 role while Mwape ‘Tozizi’ Mwelwa will play wide on the left.

Chansa is from Zanaaco

  1. poor selection by the coach; just because he once coached Buffaloes, and he is now ZESCO coach! That is why Zambian local coaches are pathetic. Christopher Munthari is better all the started defenders. Poor selection indeed, no creativity, no speed, no innovation

  2. This is what i talk about; what criteria was used to select this team??? How can we have players in the starting eleven from only two teams????? I smell something fishy right there.

  3. The coach deserves our full support. He is the one who has been with the team and knows which tactic he wants to employ. So he chooses the right material. You have my full support coach. I just want to see the boys from Green Eagles, Mwila Jr to come on as super sub with Spenser Sautu. Go Zambia Go.

  4. This team does not inspire any confidence what so ever. The best result that they can get from this game is a draw and nothing else!

  5. It’s not a secret that Lwandamina favours Buffaloes and Zesco UTD, the two teams he has coached (Buffaloes) and is currently coaching (Zesco). This is the problem we have in Zambia. Ifyabukaya. Katwishi.
