Really hoping F Sakala can score a couple against Botswana.
I feel if FS gets going then we could be challenging for a world cup slot in the months to come.
Coach’s attacking game plan really suits the type of ‘blessed with pace’ – players we have.
Good luck coach!
Good luck guys!!
Zambia GOAL, lepauleni amasumbu and prove that you are not called the BULLET for nothing.
You have prepared well and you know Zambia is good strong Team. You know Zambia’s Technical quality.
