Zambia were on Sunday evening beaten 3 – 0 by Egypt in an international friendly match against Egypt.
A goal on the first half and two in the second half saw George Lwandamina’s side lose to a good counter attacking Egyptian side.
Zambia XI v Egypt -16. Kennedy Mweene – 12. Benedict Chepeshi, 18.Boyd Mkandawire, 13. Stoppila Sunzu, 15. Buchizya Mfune – 6.Jackson Chirwa – 19. Nathan Sinkala – 3. Chisamba Lungu (Dauti Musekwa), 17.Lubambo Musonda (Donashano Malama), 9. Collins Mbesuma (Festus Mbewe) – 10. Winstone Kalengo
More to follow….



FIRST HALF 2 MINUTES GOAL RECEIVED BY MWEENE WAS HIS FAULT..
MBESIMA WASNT AT HIS BEST IN THE SECOND HALF..
WHERE WAS KALABA AND OTHERS??
Chipolopolo not two good winid musonda chamanga singuluma himonde
MAYUKA COULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING FOR THE CHIPOS..
WHERE WAS HE..THE CHIPOS WAS PLAYING 8 TIMES AFRICAN CHAMPS
THEY SHOULD HAVE USED KALABA AND MAYUKA OR FRANCE..
** OF FRANCE–CORECTION
mmmh …u start with 4 defenders(the full backs are U-23 kids)…..2 holding midfielders (one U-23,the other has little game time at his club)…as the match progresses, lungu & lubambo(wingers)out to bring in donashano & daudy msekwa(wing backs)….what the hell is that,8 defensive minded players…rubish
@Kwame we had a second string team. Though no excuses we lost. Our FA knows btetter you can’t play these Egyptians without a full team.
Agony is when you don’t have money to hire an expatriate coach when the local ones are busy destroying the team
useles local coaches i dont know when chisamba and lubambo are they going to play 90 munts? every sub its chisamba.
Ba coach u have a lot of work to do. Remember this egypt team couldn’t even make it to afcon2015, losing home and away to both tunisia and senegal
And here zambians go again. Where is Mayuka?
.
The same mayuka that can’t save his dying career, is suddenly the Zambian team missed. He has played how many matches in that useless league 2 with how many goals, 1 goal in 6 games I guess.
.
GET A REAL COACH FOR UR TEAM.
how can u substute experience players who can change the complection of the game.
how can u substute experience players who can change the complection of the game. Rabish!!
we need katebe, singuluma, jacob, kabaso, mbola even kola give him time prove himself at international level.Young players must be used at u 23 &chan games bad luck guys oways CHIPOLOPOLO.POWER 90.
Thanks for sharing the link @zamfoot.
I just saw a very timid looking Chipolopolo brutally exposed in all departments. Defensively we are in absolute shambles. Egypt easily capitalized on our lack of defensive organization. We just witnessed an embarrassing lesson on how not to experiment with clueless and enexperinced players such as the two fullbacks.
Going forward we had no pace and bite whatsoever meaning we couldn’t offer any threat to Egypt. The times when we were in possession of the ball we moved like pedestrians. The saddest thing was seeing zambia committing basic footballing errors especially when defending.
I saw a bunch of players lacking in self belief and the Egyptians had a field day at demonstrating possessive football and effective counter attacking. The build up and final execution of their 3rd goal showed how far behind we are. At this rate, hopes for World Cup qualification is dreaming in colour.
Headline should be Chipolopolo thumped in Dubai. Going down is like 1-0 ,2-1 etc.
But when I talk people don’t seem to listen. Lwandimina is a big fool to take such a team to play Egypt. This coach is very useless. I said Egypt would butcher us with that team. Mayuka is much better than kalengo. If kalengo was good why is he 30 years still in ZPL. Those full backs are very useless and should never play again. The defence is in a mess. We are simply weak. We need players like fwayo, Mayuka, katebe, kalaba etc to al always be in the team.
just after beating minows kenya many blogers here you was buisy praising lwandamina that he is the best coach in zambia, but to me lwandamina is a pathetic coach and he is destroying zambianfootball, you wil believ me as he is remaining as a coach congo wil qualify as a group winner.
This is a friendly match and one cannot read too much into them .Iam sure the coach has seen our achilles heel and will work on them. Good workout for the boys in my opinion.
I know it’s just your opinion, but the mentality of saying “this is just a friendly” is the reason we don’t improve as a team. Even as a friendly you could see how serious Egypt were.
Well said @Paddy. You are very objective man.
Well said @Paddy. I like your objectivity in your analysis.
Thanks man.
This has totally messed our fifa rankings you do not gamble with experience evans Kangwa and mbola also have to come back. Fwayo, Mayuka, katebe, singuluma, kabaso Chongo these are real players not those dean quacks kalu is marketing. Patson daka is in Spain now thanks to kalu and will again fail trials.
just after beating minows kenya many blogers here you were buisy praising lwandamina that he is the best coach in zambia, but to me lwandamina is a pathetic coach and he is destroying zambianfootball, if he wil stil remain as a coach, congo wil qualify as a group winner.
Generally speaking, Zambia has got very good players. The problem is we lack a proper coach with technical know how on key issues. We can’t continue listening to the usual nonsense of “we have learnt something from the defeat or we’re building a new team bla bla bla!
How Can You Win The Game With 6 Defenders Plus Holding Midfielder To Make 7 Defender, Sunzu, Benson Sakala, Chepeshi, Mkandawire, Dauti Musekwa, Donashana Malama & Jack Chirwa, Useless Coach U Cant Even Win The Game Possetion.

lwandamina has failed we hav players who are doing well and enjoying game time in their clubs. we need a coach who can take us to the afcon 2017 & 2018 fifa world cup.
What a shambolic performance. https://youtu.be/SPjoVOCMM_4
lwandamina has failed! coz we hav good players who are enjoying game time in their clubs. but we dont hav a qualified coach, we need a coach who can take us to the afcon 2017 & 2018 fifa world cup.
georg lwandamina must be fired. hes not a coach. how far has this pathetic coach ever gone in continental football. he has been exposed by better teams like gabon and egypt. george must be replaced we dont want midgets in the starting line up we want kola and kabaso
When I look at Lwandamina’s tactics and the players he chooses, even Janza looks like a genius. Those two boys should not be anywhere near the national team. They lack basic football common sense, they have no speed, no physique, no height. Then he chooses absolute rubbish to play in midfield. What an idiot of a coach.
Super Eagles 3 Cameroun 0.
I said it we ii lose on counters, the coutch is shalow, he was diffending using small boys
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, zambia cant even beat common egypt
Nigeria 3-0 Cameroon
The next friendly should be against Ghana, with Malama, Mkandawire, Daka, Chirwa, Chipeshi, Nfune and Musekwa in the team. We will be bashed eight nil! We have got very good players at disposal; I wonder why Luandamina can’t see that
ITS OK WE CAN BEAT THEM BY 6 GOALS LIKE GHANA DID TO THEM, IF GHANA CAN BEAT THEM 6-1 THEN CHIPPO WILL WIN TODAY 8-2 MARK MY WORDS
Canada 2 Ghana 0.
Plz lets not blame Boyd M’kandawire and Benedict Chepeshi. The boys are highly talented but jst being rushed into the senior team. Those who are insulting them should spare them as this is killing our future Chipolopolo stars. Look at Patson Daka, the boy is not himself simply because he was a victim of same treatment his friends are receiving. These boys are jst too young to face the Pharaohs and I see more trouble when we face the Congolese. The problem is with the coaches and FAZ. It appears they re not interested in the next Afcon.
Lwandamina is the real culprit for playing these kids. The guy has no football brains. Just because he is coaching Zesco who can’t even go far in African club competitions, he thinks he can do the same for the Chipolopolo. To me Big Figh is even a better coach than Chicken.
The problem is Zambia has below par players not the coach..you can have the chelsea coach but if he has crap palyers theres nothing he can do
Noo man, the opposite is true. We have some good players, but the problem is the coach. What can you say about those player selections, surely.
Mbesuma and kalengo should be dropped they too old.. Bring back kola, mayuka, kangwa, mulenga, singuluma and sate sate.. Mbesuma is rotten n kalengo he is not national team material.. Mark my words..
The man who partnering sunzu should not be near the national team. He too old and useless.. Put him in archives together with kalengo n mbesuma.. Calling these players that’s act of desperation .. Zambia have better players than these old tired legs
too much talkin nothing to show
Zambian players are not as physical as west African players this is the main reason why they cant perform. This has nothing to do with the coach its just that Zambian players are below par. Even Chelsea coach Mourino cant do anything with Zambia because the players are below par. Point Blank Full Stop.
Huge loss for Chipolopolo,Hector cuper is really going to shape up egypt into a strong team Cuper is in the cliber of wenger, sir alex, jose perkerman …too sum it all WORLD CLASS COACH .Shame Zambia can’t afford one of his class cause we are broke thanks to PF all in all it was a friendly im sure Lwadamina learn’t a thing or two on how line up the team and how counter attack with pace in the final third.
Now tht defeat is embarrassin,we still hv a lot of work 2 b done. I cnt blame da strikers bt our mid nd defense needs 2 b looked at seriously.
@cutter respect yoself, dont bring your foolishness & stupid comments here go to your site, you mean in zambia we dont hav players who can win the games. under herve renard we hav been beating teams frm wes africa. i only respect nigeria & cameroon in west, the rest are our daily bread.
@cutter respect yoself, dont bring your foolishness & stupid comments here go to your site, you mean in zambia we dont hav players who can win the games. i only respect nigeria & cameroon in west, the rest are our daily bread.
@Abram:Who cares who you respect? Beating the West Africans once in a lifetime & being massacred all the time is a shame. The West Africans are well recognized on the international scene than Zambia. Ghana, Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Togo, Mali represent Black Africa on the world stage. Let us hop we go to the world cup at least ONCE in our life time. Stop the bragging as we could not even get out of the group stages at the last AFCON while the West Africans were battling for the championship. They are ALWAYS ahead of us. PERIOD.
@cutter respect yoself, dont bring your foolishness & stupid comments here go to your site, you mean that in zambia we dont hav players who can win the games. i can only respect nigeria & cameroon in west, the rest are our daily bread.
Who is ur daily bread. Zambia beat a depletes ghana squad of inexperienced players so stop being proud. A ghana inexperienced squad makes it to at least the semis in afcon so u cant compare shambolic chips tho the black stars. Ask egypt how it feels to meet a full ghanain squad with tbe kevins, essien, kojo asamoah, muntari etc. Without our stars ghana is still doing well unlike ur chips.
Abram stop dreaming and face facts zambia calling the liked of ghana daily bread because the beat a young depleted ghana squad in the semis of Afcon 2012, come on. Ask Egypt what it feels like to play a full black stars team. They were thumped six goals to one with tve like of kevin, essien, muntari, etc. Even ayew didnt play in that match. Our inexperienced boys always make it toat least the semis in afcon see how ur young ones are playing. They are just useless. Please respect Ghana cos we are ae far ahesd of the chips .
Lwandamina is not a gud coach, janza is far much better than him.we won kenya by lucky, therefore if u do not change da coach ba faz we il continue losing. I ve neva suported this chiken ful of experiments
how can a coach with chicken mind coach Zambia, nowader is bringing small boys in defence thinking are his chicks &play pharaohs.common faz,look for an expatriate coach before Kenya come &bash as 5-0 like the way they harmmered Mauritius
I have been mentioning on this forum that this young lads are not yet ready. And that they will be torn to pieces when we meet more formidable sides. And this is what happened. Sudan will butcher Zambia in Khartoum if we don’t learn from what happened last night and it will be very difficult to reverse that score line in Ndola.
In a game of such a huge magnitude, we needed tried and tested players like Mbola, Kabaso, Kangwa, Mayuka, Singuluma, Katebe, and probably Fwayo Tembo. Zambia does not learn. We keep on doing the same things over and over again hoping to get a different result. The coach is useless. Why continue playing those little boys as full backs. Lwandamina is not a good coach just like he was not even a good defender in his playing days.
Lesson well learnt,its good that Zambia has come down to earth as regards the game against Egypt.Chicken knows that Egypt is a good counter attacking team but he takes school kids for a tour of Dubai!
The fact is we dont have a coach and we cant hire a good one either coz our pf economy cant afford one. Go on, cry as much as you can and as long as we wont get an a good expartriate coach, na afcon 2017 zilo bane.
You can’t compete with a team of Egypts caliber with half your team comprising of midgets and playing 7 defenders! Kalu must go.
Let Chepeshi and Mkandawire continue playing for U23 so they can improve. They should not come anywhere near the national team.
Players required back to national team:
Mbola
Kabaso
Singuluma
Mayuka
Kangwa
Fwayo
Kola
Munthali
Katebe
Sate Sate
Very useeless and clueless local coaches we have. Not fit for national duty..PERIOD!!!
Its pretty clear the fullbacks are being rushed into the fold but lets desist from insulting them. It is certainly not their fault. Let’s not break their spirit, we should actually encourage them as they are our future. The problem is the people who are rushing them. Im not sure what point Lwandamina is trying to prove because even an inexperienced coach can clearly see the lads are being rushed. Its a bigger pull to swallow but lets soldier on gents……Its not like FAZ listens to reason anyway.
Why werent Mbola and Kangwa called – that is the way forward, playing Mbesuma and Kalengo is stop-gap measure which is used in desperate times but its not sustainable.
Useless local coaches we need an xpatriate!! Onli a useless coach will play egypt with that squad those boys fullbacks how dare you u chicken!
True the current local coaches are useless. I do not see any better local coach as at now. Hell knows, we are in trouble. Even the U/23 will be clobbered. Zambian football is in shambles and this is white and black for all to see
First goal it was Chisamba Lungu at Fault. Again Trying to Show Boat in the middle of the park Before he was Desposessed. 2nd And 3rd goal it was Sunzu at Fault. He should have Cleared Both Balls
Tamfwa! I told you Zambia in its current state can not win against Egypt but you want to deceive yourselves that you have material. What material.
Mayuka – Injured and has never scored for Zambia since Afcon
Fwayo – Disciplinary issues all the time and on the bench most times
Mweene – Reflexes going down benched most times at club
Mkandawire – Still raw for the big stage
Lwandamina – He is a one dimensional game coach. Look at his Zesco team. IT can work for the club but not at national team level. He is good for identifying talent and not a coach for the future.
We need to know our priorities
Hahahahahahaha, kuseka chabe, what else can one do? We just have too many soccer experts in Zambia and this is why we are successful or is it the opposite
Too much if we had so and so then we could have won. Fwayo Tembo has no club and yet he being suggested as a savior. Why do we sing the same song when we lose, instead facing the fact? We simply have no good players in Zed. It is not only the senior team, a look at the best clubs performance in the Champions and Conf. cups speaks volumes. If some fans here expect the current team to perform wonders then these fans should be as good as our team. We are have reached the bottom
The fact is that we do not have a team that can compete with the best and that is that. The factories producing players in Zambia have collapsed and when this happens, what do you expect?
Sudan is waiting
A picture speaks a thousand words! We have four Egyptians vs two Zambian defenders inside our 18 yard area.
