Share

Zambia will face Sudan next week in an international friendly.

According to Faz, Zambia will face Sudan away in Khartoum on November 17.

Zambia settled on Sudan after earlier courting Moldova and 2012 Africa Cup co-hosts Gabon.

The team will be using the match as preparations for its participation in this year’s edition of the Cecafa Senior Challenge Cup in Tanzania that begins on November 27.

PATRICK PHIRI STAYS AT SIMBA

Ex-Zambia and Nkana coach Patrick Phiri has accepted a new long-term contract with defending Tanzania mainland champions Simba SC after the expiry of his two-year deal on Tuesday.

Phiri’s new contract is for an unspecified period that will see him promoted from coach to Simba technical director.

His retention ends speculation that he might be lured to ambitious club Azam FC who were said to be courting the former Zambian coach.

Simba are currently top of the Tanzanian mainland league table on 27 points from 11 games going into the two-month break before action resumes in January.

Archrivals Young Africans are second on 25 points while Azam are third on 20 points.

  1. since all are boycourting; I ask all media houses including LT to do the same so that we the public are prevented from hearing/experiencing the FAZ scandle. so only talk to us when we will have the next league games. kwasila.

  2. pliz ba LT can you confirm your tools down regarding football reporting until then. others should do the same.

  3. It is sad really,i on the other hand always suspected there is an ocean of a difference between Administration and taking free kicks.To what extent is his almost insatiable desire or is it appetite for caucasian women factoring into his run away over ambition? Is not FAZ a big organisation whose management needed to be done by individuals who have at the very least basic appreciation of the dynamics of Public Service administration.Just because one is popular does not make them eligible for certain jobs one needs to have qualifications or experience. The issue of personal probity in his dealings is one i may not go into.This,my friends is where the cookie indeed crumbles! You see you can fool some people sometimes but you can not fool all the people all the times-Robert Nestor Marley selah
