Chipolopolo captain Rainford Kalaba and Nathan Sinkala were both in action on Saturday evening as Congo DR giants TP Mazembe went down 2 – 1 in Sudan against Al Merreikh.
Merreikh went ahead in the 41st minute through Francis Collie but Mazembe replied in the 77th minute through Thomas Ulimwengu.
The Sudanese restored their lead in the 80th minute through Bakri Al Madina.
Kalaba was replaced by Ulimwengu in the 75th minute while Sinkala came off the bench to play 32 minutes.
Kabaso Chongo was an unused substitute while Given Singuluma did not make the bench.
Despite the loss, Mazembe will be happy to have scored an away goal in the two legged affair.
Almost everybody is having game time which is good for Chipolopolo. But Renard gambled when he used Sunzu on the right wing. The guy really had a tough time and couldn’t finish the game.
Sunzu??? He is not y best central pillar now.most goals Zambia conceeds he is the victim. Let us try other combination before its too late. Not bene mukandawire and chipeshi of cause. But munthali, katebe and other s
Sunzu has dropped form due to no game time.He will bounce back.There is need to find a suitable person. Kalaba also has dropped form,we need to find other combination
Sunzu has lost form due to a series of injuries he had and as a result lacked game time. In the Friday evening game he played as a left wing back. he tried but you could see he was not comfortable in that position. Kalaba and Singuluma have seen their better days and age is catching up with them.
I am positive TP Mazembe will go through. Al Merreikh will be “slaughtered” in Lubumbashi in the return leg in a fortnight. Mazembe scored an important away goal.
It seems we don’t have players to replace the 2010 winning team. It’s gonna take some time before we make a strong team. The current young players do not inspire me.
