  1. Soccer fan nambala one!
    Are we getting a live streaming of the game on LT?
    Does anyone know where I can watch???

  2. This is a very good opportunity for the new Chipolopolo boys to shine. There are a number of scouts at this match. Hope the boys prepare well for Algeria.

  3. I cant wait to see how we will perform , this is an opportunity to prove ourselves , am acutally going to watch with my mates………COME ON ZAMBIA!!!!!!!!!!!

  4. Zambia has been forced to draft in students based in UK (3). Mayuka, William arriving 15 minutes before kickoff?

  5. game was supposed to start at 19:30 uk time but it is now starting I will update you with every goal from the pichside the ghanaian are all geared up for it but our team is half baked ,

  6. FAZ what kind of a team did you allow the coach to carry with him? Guys, admin yanu naipela zero(NOTO) Kabiyenifwe mukuupa like your presido. JOKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  7. WHAT A JOKE. THIS GUYS ARE PLAYING LIKE NURSARY SCHOOL BOYS. THATS GHANA FOR ZAMBIA WITH A PHYSICAL EDUCATION COACH.

  8. are we crazy or what?

    what type of performance do we think the boys will put in, am disgusted as a zambian where we can’t arrange visas for our boys to shine in the current home of football. ohh our chief was busy getting his personal life in order. if the boys where required to play in congo or mongolia some would have opted to spare themselves humiliation. shame. i hope they throw the game like 10 -1. foolish

  9. JUST IMAGINE ZAMBIA ONLY HAD 11 PLAYERS AND HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR MAYUKA AND NJOVU ARRIVING IT WAS GOING TO BE DISASER.SECOND HALF ZAMBIA IS PLAYING BETTER THOUGH WE RE A MAN DOWN

  10. Sadly, this appears similar in nature to the Cameroun game we lost 5-1 out of probably intimidation.

    We need as many as possible of these games to boost courage in our Chipolopolo boys.

    Anyhow, congrats to Ghana for a jolie job well done and touch luck for our Zambian boys. May be this will be a wake up call for more to be done in order to uplift our football standards.

    Have a blessed day all.

  11. What is wrong with these boys? loosing konkanyasly like does not give a good indication of what is to expect from next WC qualifier game. Tufwayeko abamano ama players. Not players who play soccer because they have failed in school which to me is an indication of not being inteligent.

  12. This is what you expect when you have amafontini organising football. I mean how do you fail to get visas for SA based players dont they know what is required and the time it takes. In Zambia we need to get serious we cannot allow this hopelessness and failure to be our fate INE NAKANA!

  13. Faz seriously needs to get their house in order so where to from here are the guys going to remain in England for more preparations and friendlies or what?

  14. i CANT UNDERSTAND HOW FELIX AND CHRIS COULD NOT MAKE IT KALU SHOULD GO ON SABBATICAL LEAVE TO SETTLE DOWN WITH HIS WIFE WE ARE TIRED NOW MWEH !

  15. Ba fikala!!!!! how many times am i supposed to tell the Zedian say **** FAZ coz it all starts with FAZ.
    **** FAZ!!!!

  16. PIPO PIPO please it was just a freindly,it’s meant to spot the weakneses in the squad,it’s actualy better to lose in a freindly, that way you don’t relax.Abena zambia uku temwa crticism!!!!!!!!!

  17. I knew from the poor organisation that nothing was going to come out of this game for Zambia. How can you arrive less than 24hrs before such a big game with a string of sub-standard players with a hangover? I thought the boys would seize this opportunity to market themselves big time and be professional. Like everything in Zambia, we can’t manage anything not even a game. Is it any wonder that in 45 years we have never won the africa cup. Wake up call for the sleeping President!!

  18. Please rest assured that the Zambian team did us proud, given the circumstances in which they arrived. If you did not know, they arrived today straight from the Airport to the pitch. The flight was not direct as they had to spend some hours in Kenya.
    Now how do you expect any team to do any better than they did. For your own information Zambia was technically better than Ghana but the boys were obviously jet lugged. The FAZ chairman (KALUSHA) was busy on honey moon in South Africa when he should have sent the team a week earlier. Please dont blame the team but blame the Zambian management , including the president

  19. #65 Amayama Thanks for an insighful analysis. Kalu was a great player during his time but that does not make him a manager. His job needs someone with totally different skills from that of Great Kalu. I can only feel pity for the coach.

  20. Wow, they only hammered us by 4-1!!! I actually was expecting a worse goal line.

    FAZ, you should know that every time you play outside Zambia most likely you gonna need VISAS for your players. Was this a surprise to you??

    PLANNING, ORGANIZATION, PLANNING, ORGANIZATION, AND PLANNING AGAIN—–does this seem like a mystery to you?!!!!

  21. FAZ sucks, and Kalu swallows. This made the Zambian team look really bad when it wasn’t even their fault. I am surprised Renard hasn’t resigned out of frustration yet. Good effort boys, atleast you did your best.

  22. when are we going to improve ,also why did they fail to send all the players for this all important friendly game.cause most of those who played will not play when we meet Algeria this was just a waste of tax payers money.

  23. It is very sickening to hear only negative things about our beloved country. We can not run the country, economy, football etc, whats wrong with our leadership. mediocrity has become very normal in our country such that no one feels accountable for anything he or she does. surely in a normal functional place someone needs to explain why funds were spent on the national team outing obviously to achieve certain outcomes and the opposite happened. why even travel if you do not have the team. When was Zambia exempted from VISA requirements in Europe, GREAT GALU must know better since he lived there. WE NEED TO WAKE UP AS A COUNTRY AND START QUESTIONING ISSUES LIKE THIS. I AM PERSONALLY FADE UP!

  24. Amayahma!!! Were you watching a different game to the one I was? At no time did Zambia exibit more technique than Ghana. Esien and their No. 6 dominated the midfield and were more than comfortable on the ball. We gave them too much room.

    Somebody should also look into getting kit that actually fits. The one zambia used yesterday made them look malnourished and unprofessional.

  25. That was zambia `C` vs Ghana. Honestly if we had a full flaged team of the likes of the katongo`s, kalaba, Jacob mulenga, chansa, Mweene, musonda etc we could have done better. Let`s just bring all our amunition together.
