Zambia U20 v Korea Rep.: Chambeshi makes three changes

Zambia U20 national team coach Beston Chambeshi has made three changes to the team that beat Ecuador 2 – 0 on Saturday for the game against Korea Republic.

Chambeshi has restored first choice goalkeeper Mangani Banda between the posts while skipper of the side Solomon Sakala also returns.

Solomon Sakala will partner Benson Chali at the heart of the defense. Chali completed 90 minutes in the previous game partnering Moses Nyondo as the technical bench continues trying out different combinations to a back-line that rarely concedes.

Prosper Chiluya also returns at left back while Shemmy Mayembe drops to the bench with Edward Tembo having another chance to impress after he completed 90 minutes in the previous game.

The team remains the same going forward with Emmanuel Banda, Harrison Chisala in midfield while Chrispin Sakulanda and Kenneth Kalunga will take the flanks.

Enock Mwepu who captained the side in the first game of the tournament will partner Edward Chilufya in attack.

Zambia beat Ecuador 2 – 0 with goals from Chilufya and Mwepu while Korea Republic beat Honduras 3 – 2.

The boys have already arrived at the Cheonan Sports Complex venue of the match. The game kicks off at 12h00.
