Zambia U20 bounce back as they wallop Honduras

The Zambia U20 national soccer team has ended the Adidas Korea Four Nations Invitation tournament on a high after they walloped Honduras 4 – 1 in their final game.

Bestone Chambeshi named a strong team for the final game which the regular players restored to the starting eleven.

High scoring attacker Edward Chilufya opened the scores as early as the third minute as the young Zambian boys looked to avenge their loss to Korea Republic.

Emmanuel Banda completed a crispy finish on top of the box before Enock Mwepu completed a brace on either side of the half.

It was some brilliant display from the Zambian boys and they could have scored even more as they were only denied by the woodwork.

Korea Republic who have a 100 percent record meet Ecuador later today in a game that will determine the winner of the tournament.

Zambia have a chance to be crowned champions if Ecuador beat Korea Republic as the winner will then be determinedon goal difference.

The boys are expected back in the country over the weekend.

STARTING XI: Mangani Banda, Shemmy Mayembe, Propser Chiluya, Moses Nyondo, Solomon Sakala, Benson Chali, Chrispine Sakulanda, Emmanuel Banda, Edward Chulufya, Enock Mwepu, Kenneth Kalunga

    • Keep Benson Chali my 6, umwaiche mukali. Sakulanda and Kalunga Denmark will pave way for Sakala & Patson.
      Enock & Banda E, have proved us that they are ultility players, anywhere…. From defence to striker they can play.
      Chambeshi should enjoy playing any tactic he can dream of, he is gifted with talented boys. It is like teacher of pupils who gets 6 points every test. You just sit there telling them how to behave in life, that’s so.

  2. That is the Zambian spirit. The team has picked a few valuable lessons, most important of which is gaining the ‘fearlessness’. We have a team, all we need to do is polish up abit, especially defensively. We also need to be brutally efficient upfront

  3. They probably only need criticism in order to shame it. But even the encouragement only fits somewhere in between. I think they mind their own business, as they take everyone with them. Zambia is behind Behind you Zambia!!! See you are champions again!!

  4. contract young bullets.our attack is potent enough.we need to learn to avoid being exposed against quick,slicky opposition.

  5. Keep your focus U20! The worldcup could come just as did the COSAFA and AFCON. Congratulations and All he best!! We would wish we were all in Korea

    • If Korea loses by 2 goals to nil they would still win the tournament. They would be tied on goal difference but on head to head Korea has bitten us.

  6. I think Zambia has won the Four nations Invitation as South Korea has been walloped by Ecuador by 2 nil if the results are true then Zambia will win it via a 5 goal advantage, South Korea are on 4, Ecuador on 3 and Honduras -5.

    • Sorry Guys my maths were jumbled up ala fintu fimo awe kwena mwe! any way the Boys did very well! keep it up mwe bana.
