Chipolopolo skipper Rainford Kalaba will miss Zambia’s next game in the 2018 Russia World Cup qualifiers against Algeria due to suspension.
Kalaba picked his second booking in the group stage in game against Cameroon on Saturday.
This was after the influential midfielder was booked during the game against Nigeria last month.
The 30 year old attacking midfielder talked his way into the book as he protested the referee’s decisions.
Misheck Chaila was also booked for an aggressive tackle.
The ‘Master’ provided the assist for Mbesuma for Zambia’s goal against Cameroon.
Zambia host Algeria in August 2017 in a game the Chipolopolo must win to keep the chances of clinching a spot at the 2018 finals alive.
Its time to find a replacement and have seen Zambia qualify to the world cup 2018. Predicted results : Zambia 2:1 Algeria. Cameron 3:2 Nigeria. Algeria 1:1 Zambia. Nigeria 2:2 Cameron. Nigeria 1:1 Zambia. Cameron 0:0 Algeria. Zambia 3:1 Cameron. Nigeria 1:1 Algeria.
This I like Mwelwa! You are as positive as I am about our team.
keep on dreaming
Zambia won’t win any match
naija all the way
To bad for our captain its time to start assesing lubambo and others
We wl be fine fwayo n charles zulu in th flanks collins top man n play maker to chisamba, nathan n isaac can anchor fackson n silwimba full backs,ziyo n sunzu center backs 4 2 3 1
2nd half(70) withdraw fwayo put ronald sate collins goes pa 10
Lubambo for chisamba
i watched the game and zambia
didnt played well as they allowed
the camerounian team press too
much in the game, to me zambia
were lucky cameroun srikers were
not sharp and fast. If zambia play Algeria who has Bentaleb, Slimani
and Mahrez in that manner it will
be hard to resist a goal from them..
If two cauntries can qualify from
each group i would love Nigeria
and Zambia to qualify from this group. Their is still time to
reorganize ur team, Mbesuma is
getting old i dnt knw how in form
he wil b next year..
I agree with you my Naija brother. Well said.
We need to name Mweene as captain to replace Kalaba. Kalaba is not captain material. He is too short tempered and lacks leadership qualities. We should also try to identify a striker. Mbesuma is getting old and I think Walter Bwalya would be a good replacement and I hope they sort out his citizenship papers soon so he can be eligible to play for Zambia. Continue introducing in new and younger players into this team otherwise we need to phase out veterans in this squad.
Spot on there. Then Chisamba Lungu can be vice, atleast for the upcoming game.
call Lubambo Musonda
what has happen to Ghana and their fans
Naija whiz kid is right on his assessment. That performance by Zambia was shoddy. The Cameroon team is lacking quality upfront. They done have a Samuel Eto…it would have been a totally different story. Tell me why three players are chasing for the same balling defense leaving space behind? And then then we dud have a break at one point I saw a lone player with the ball with zero options and no one coming up or making runs on the counter. We done use wings and our play style is too too predictable. You have till August 2017 to come up with a solid team and word on all departments. Arrange quality friendlies. Today Ivory Coast plays France. This new FA must show us substance. They came in saying they will do something. They want even arrange paperwork for a player in Zambia who has a Zambian father…playing in Zambia league and us top goal scorer. The only way to entice the Musonda boys from Belgium clutches is if Zambia performs…otherwise they are looking at Belgium which is playing better under new coach Martinez. Come on Zambia yay can play better than that.on another topic that Limbe field in Cameroon looks bad.
I’m still wondering as to why Faz is not putting up adverts for the upcoming under twenty competition,time is not their best ally.Otherwise the stadiums will be empty from day one to the last day.
I agree with you. It appears we always arrive late for everything. Always reactive instead of being proactive.
This event should have been made a bigger than life event. We should have had a lot of youth programs from which we would harvest after after five years. As it is, it will be a mere meeting.
on second thoughts give people a chance, you know.
Very indisciplined player indeed.
Agony is seating on the edge of your seat fearing that Kalaba will be given a red card. Yaba!
faz shud organise more frendlies btwn now nd august 2017 fow wada to identify mbesuma,we got walter,jackson,yuka,kangw
Results:
Nigeria 6
Cameroon 9
Zambia 10
Algeria 8
Zambia to qualify for 2018 Russia WC
MMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm these predictions, they really scare
MMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm these predictions, they really scare me
1988 it was king kalu 2013 chris katongo. This time its reinford kalaba. Among the short listed players he is the most decorated player its very unfortunate that chipolopolo didnot qualify for afcon. If they consider it as a factor khama n ugandian goalkeeper will walk away with the precious price.. Southern africa rules.
Zambians the dreamers!if horses are wishes beggars will ride.Algerians will be looking for a perfect 6 points over Zambians of course another draw with a Nigerian wins settles the group
