Micho: Morocco have the advantage over Zambia in quarter final clash

Chipolopolo coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojević has said Zambia’s opponents in the quarter finals of the ongoing CHAN tournament Morocco have an advantage over his team.

Speaking to the ZamFoot Crew ahead of the must win clash against the defending Champions, Micho said the Atlas Lions are a top class team.

“Our brothers from Morocco have a top-class team,” Micho said.

“They will be playing in a stadium they know and it is similar to the Mohammed V Stadium in Casablanca [refering to the giant 67,000 seater home of the Atlas Lions], they are used to the weather and they have all it takes [to win the tournament],” he added.

“He however added that the North Africans will be meeting the Zambia version of Lions,” he added.

The Champions topped Group C and had the advantage of not shifting base while Zambia had to move from Buea to Douala after coming out as runners up group D.

  1. Good observation. Zambia has a defence that collapses into 6s and 7s under attack. They never learn how to mark an area. They ball watch instead of man and space watch.
    If this can be corrected then they may be hope. And please no defender should cross the centre line otherwise the fast running Arabs will tear us apart by counter attack.

  2. Cheer your own team,talk about Zambia which employed and paying you what world class are you talking about.Zambia is a big team both in Africa and the world.Why did you accept the contract to work for Zambia if you cant cheer your team but talking about your opponent that they are a world class,discouraging our players,you as head u should speak positively and not negatively.
    Given the authority to me I would have fired you today with immediate effect for gross negligence of duty and for lack of confidence in yourself and the team you are mentoring.

  3. I have never experienced this in my life since I was born A father with no confidence in the children were on this earth? Zambian coach be careful otherwise you will go faster than you think

  4. It’s a pity our boys did not realize that Arabs teams starts the game ferociously the first 15 minutes they are dangerous the midfielders shold have all gone into defense like our Jericho Shinde used to do contain them and don’t go punch for punch jjust pack the bus at the back the entire 1st half and come out fast paced into attack one defensive midfielder and the entire defense do the man marking and and to quickly return otherwise we have a good goil keeper
