  1. @ Dry Vinkubala, Indeed where ever the game will be taken and at whatever time it will take place We will troop there en mass to make the boys feel at home away from home with our Chipolopolo attire.

  2. The Young Zebras will be skinned. There will be a lot of zebra meat in Gabs. I’ll bring chilli and salt to save the meat for biltong coz I don’t like fresh zebra meat.

    • Do people actually eat Zebra??

      Ok back to soccer, after the last disappointment I hope the lads have learned a thing or two about how to approach these sort of games. I’m keeping my fingers crossed the lads nail this one.

  3. Underate Botswana at your own peril. I am just saying. Botswana are a good side. They can score goals. The only problem is they don’t know how to defend. They are more an attacking team. Even their national team is like that.
