Full Time
It was a good show for both teams. What was bad was to deny a clear goal for Zambia. It’s high time our African referees started officiating matches professionally with all the neutral needed.
Lubambo Musonda plays as an attacking winger. Why was he used as a defender? Lubambo has never played in defence for Zambia. That was his first time to play on as a defender. From an attacker to a defender why, Mr Micho? Is it a litmus taste?
