The Zambia Under Twenty national soccer team yesterday morning shifted camp from Dakar to the city of Mbour, located 80 kilometres south of the Senegalese capital where they will play their group matches.
The team which was given a clean bill of health by team the team doctor after a few knocks suffered in the 1 – 0 loss to Senegal on Tuesday evening had camp in Dakar since arrival in Senegal on Sunday.
Coach Hector Chilombo said after the match against Senegal that the game helped him see areas that needed strengthening.
“We still have time to work on our inefficiencies and we thank the Football Association of Zambia for making us come here [Senegal] early. The boys have acclimatised, which is very good for us,” Chilombo said.
The team today completed their second training session at Diambers Football Academy in Mbour, Senegal.
Zambia play Mali on Monday evening in their opening match at 21:30hrs.
The match will be live on Supersport.
Zambia will come home early becus looking at their strength they can’t match any of their group opponents
Ghana to eat zambia for breakfast lunch dinner supper and desert hahahah
hahahahahahaha so are these the zambia under 20 above .hmmmmmm
To be quite honest, what will count in our group is experience and mental toughness because all the teams seem to be evenly posed
Lets all wait for Tomorrow,I promise that u will all see good and Entertaining Attacking soccer from flying eagles of Nigeria
For Ghana n Mali it will be difficult for Zambia to beat them as for South Africa Zambia can handle them
Zambia will handle Mali and Ghana then south Africa is a local derby
This time we are going through, yes or yes
Yes, we are going through.
Hahahahhahahahahahah…….. See these men zambians are parading as U-20. Yeye dey smell.
People in glass don’t throw stones. Zambians always shouting age cheating on others to give themselves joy at their failure, now you are parading over-age men when you also get the chance to participate in the u-20 tournament.
I pray you guys make it to the semis, can’t wait to see my flying eagles spanking your over-age team.
Flying eagles will spank them just like ur U-17 team
No one talking bout the tournament in my country Ghana. Very sad.
But as soon as our boys start winning they will
Zambia is not in a lucky group at all,Ghana and Mali are going through
@citizenmike, that is normal even here in nigeria. Wait till after the first round and you will see people showing interest.
From my humble opinion and experience of watching soccer over the years what counts is the level of preparedness that makes teams to progress further in tournaments and Zambia has every chance of reaching the semis and even lifting the under 20 Afcon irrespective of the pedigree that come with the some so called ‘big guns’ at this age group games.
yah,@badosqi…since they cant match under age,they are parading overage but i have no problem with that.my problem is pretending as if they are angels and announcing that only some regions in africa cheat excluding themselves,and this makes them real pharisees in football..pogba played for france so its his real age,if he played for west african country,he would be overage and thats their philosophy.what the late south africa president B.W BOTHA said in 1985 is reflecting in southern africa habitants.”give afrikanar a gun,and they will kill themselves”
you claim we are parading over age players because there is no mri scan,but here is the case that you are parading ancestors
thy never cease to amaze me
@ghanaboy… Lmao at parading ancestors.. Gosh!! I can’t stop laffing..
But it is really amazingly funny how these guys find nothing wrong in this. Non of them is even complaining about it. I am trying to imagine the kind of hateful comments that would have flooded this site if it was team Nigeria or team Ghana’s picture that is posted up there.
Let me borrow a word from ghanaboy *hypocrite*… MUMBI the “Hypocrite” please is there anything wrong with zambians parading ancestors as U-20.
If you want to win and match West Africans one has just to do want they are good at,age cheating,so want is the fuss all about brothers.Now you see that we are on level ground and you raise an issue so that when your gran pa’s lose you start saying that we fielded a team of over aged players,so sad mates.
Interestingly funny Discipline… So are you telling us and agreeing to the fact that zambians are age cheats…WTF!!!
You’ve just shot yourself in the leg.
Zambians are age cheatzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!
You are not even ashamed of yourself. Openly declaring your country of age cheating.
Kikikikikikikikikikikik @ Discipline, let them cry after all its not blood they are dropping I would have been worried for my West African brothers. Lol
Ancestors indeed…Zambia now believe parading Abrahams will improve their national teams….I’m laughing in Chinese….We are waiting and its all start tomorrow
Amen to that brother @Noble Eagles,@Badosqi just what do we Cosafa and the rest of Africa just have to do,counter attack in the name of age cheating you use gran pa’s we use fathers as simple as that.You people are very funny,you talk of being ashemed and yet yourselves are not.
