Zambia’s most prized assets Patson Daka and Enock Mwepu will feature in Tuesday’s redemption Cameroon 2021 African Cup of Nations qualifier against Zimbabwe, the ZamFoot Crew can exclusively reveal.
And Chipolopolo Boys are set to return home on Saturday at around 19h00 from Algeria.
Since the Gabon disaster in 1993 which saw the cream of Zambian players perish of the coast Gabon on the Atlantic Ocean, the last 96 hours have been ranked among the darkest hours of Zambian football.
On Tuesday, the famed ‘Dream Team’ which graduated from the U20 class of 2017 that won the U20 Africa Cup failed to live up-to expectations as they lost 3-1 to Nigeria.
24 hours later in Algeria, Aggrey Chiyangi’s boys were left bleeding in Blida with a 5-0 thumping by the Riyad Mahrez captained African Champions.
While many fans were left speechless by the performance of the Kabaso Chongo captained side, some Chipolopolo faithful still had hope in the ‘Dream Team’ to salvage the nation’s pride as attention shifted from Blida to Cairo.
In a desperate attempt to salvage some pride, the Redbull Salzburg duo will quickly be shipped to Lusaka to help the senior team get their campaign for a spot at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations finals back on track.
The ZamFoot Crew has been informed that arrangements were already in place dependent on the result at the U23 Africa Cup finals.
The last week has indeed been very disappointing, but this is good news about Daka and Mwepu playing against Zimbabwe. A win will get Chipolopolo back on track to qualify for the 2021 Africa Cup.
Daka and mwepu can change everything we want to see them on Tuesday team please they should come fast.
I really don’t want to see that player who play with Augustine at Orlando pirate. And they give him 90 minutes!!
do not forget chabula
@Andy Indeed its been a bad week for our Men’s soccer. I put the blame on the Football Association and Coaching staff.
