Qatar 2022 World Cup Qualifier
E Guinea 2 – 0 Zambia (Bassey Oubina 33′, Emelio Nsue 86′)
The Zambia nation team’s hopes of qualifying to the 2022 FIFA Qatar 2022 World Cup are all but over after they were beaten 2 – 0 away by Equatorial Guinea.
The talking points however will be around the officiating of the game with the referee putting up quite a show that left the Chipolopolo players shell-shocked with Prince Mumba getting a straight red card in the 25th minute.

Bye bye qatar..bye bye africa cup kamanga thanks for destrying zambia football for your pocket..
The truth of the matter is we dont have quality players period.
You speak the truth! We have currently a weak national football league, look at ZESCO FC our champion early exit from continental club football…, top professional players are struggling to establish their places in the clubs…
Competition will only come if we call quality foreign based n zambian born players..not wena chipante chipante boys..local players don’t have quality we got many zambian born players abroad n foreign based whom can fill many positions
Remove chambeshi that thes answer to our problem
