Highlights: Zambia 2-1Portugal

Zambia came out on top in an intriguing tussle with Portugal to get the edge in Fifa Under-20 World Cup Korea Republic 2017 Group C.

Both sides set up playing to their strengths: Portugal limiting the space, favouring their technical prowess, Zambia sitting deep, containing and looking to strike on the break. Chances came at both ends, with Zambia being saved by Moses Nyondo – blocking Diogo Goncalves’ goal-bound strike, before the game kicked up a gear after the break.

  1. Tightly contested game. Luchanga is a good lad & his play is ok. However, Fashion, Patson & Emmanuel right behind is a more lethal attack.

  2. Congratulations to the boys. However, The defense of the lads is poor.
    How can a defender lose sight of an attacker in the 18? the captain for that matter?
    This happened time and time again. We should not allow such. I hope the coach took note of that.
    It’s good to mark the space but its better to mark both the space and the man.
    they were too casual.

  3. What is soccer-ingulu saying now? It is keeping its venom for now! Congratulations Zambia! Congratulations Beston!
