Zambia beat Barcelona legends in an exhibition match at Lusaka’s National Heroes Stadium.
The Chris Katongo captained recorded a 3-0 win over the former Barcelona stars.
Collins Mbesuma gave the CAF 2012 African Cup of Nations winners a first half lead before goals from James Chamanga and Clifford Mulenga sealed the victory.
World Cup winner Ronaldinho was the darling of the crowd.
Kalusha Bwalya featured for 45 minutes.
Both Kalusha and Ronaldinho had the chance to score from free kicks but missed the target.
otherwise we felt the presence of Ronaldinho each time he touched the ball…if u look at the game properly …I think ba zambia 2012 are finished coz how can they win 3 when most of our players are still playing and they are below age whilst barcer players were too old and they were atleast passing the ball nicely what if they played bena etoo, iniesta , yaya , xavi, e.t.c their agemates….it would have been chaos
Ooho iwee what more , if we had lost the game ,what would you say ? The starndard of play sure zambia was amazing in all departtments
The game was not balanced. Barca brought old legends we used players who are active. Not balanced. And our so called active players are indeed planks
Overall this was a great occasion for the nation as a whole. the only taint to this event was FAZ’s pettiness. It was great to see the who stadium enjoying themselves.
