  2. mazuka shud have started..it was going to give us a lot of ball advantage in front as well as a shot to strike..lets hope changes will be made earlier in second half 

  7. HR wants to use Mayuka as a supersub when the Ghanaians are tired. I think it is a briliant idea to utilise our depth strength.

  9. I have decided not to watch this game because of the experience I have with the zambian national soccer team. In 1992, I was listening to the commentary of Dennis Liwewe when Kalusha Bwalya missed a seater from Derby Makinka…. That match Ghana won 1 – 0. Having that in my mind, It is hard to watch this match. I just hope history does not repeat itself in this game..!!!

  12. The Boys need to settle down and play their game. Looks like there are nerves all round and even the passing upfront is not convincing. Can the P.E teacher shout more 

  13. Well done Ghana, Zambia can rot for all I care

    I am told they lost?

    I am on my way home now on a bus,  That zambia team can rot for all i care

    Let us talk about education, life and TV shows. I am glad this football rubbish has ended

    Thanks

  25. Gents n Ladies, we have been outsmarted, outplayed but we still remain lethal, once we score in the next half ninshi we win.

  30. Mayuka should be brought in now. Chamanga is not running! The ref wanted to upset our game in the first minutes, blowing everything against Zambia. What was that?????????????

  33. Mushota, your claimed parents might have picked you up somewhere in the forest close to the Zambian border with some war torn country. You seem to be lost or your just out of touch with reality.

  34. Hold on a guys, we will score in the 2nd half when Mayuka comes in. These Ghanaianas are underrating us, they need to be whipped properly and sent home crying. We will teach them not to mess with Zambia!!

  37. Zambia is playing well, but they are overusing the goalie and that’s dangerous. The ball should not be so close in to our area.

  38. Come on bloggers, post something. I guess you are eating off your nails eh. Donchi worry we going to win this match. Let’s go Zambia, let’s Go!!!

  43. This is football (soccer). At times things dont go as one expects. Ghana will play a spectacular match if they want, but the game is Zambia’s. Watch this space

  56. I don´t understand how HH has managed to acquire his wealth at his age in Zambia while all Mushota has after prostituting herself in Glasgow for over ten years are 5 guns and a Toyota.Please help me learn and understand INVESTEMENT PRINCIPLES so that maybe and just maybe Mushota and I can settle in Zambia.

  57. every time mushota says something bad about Zambia, Zambia ends up winning. A good omen for us te? Let her continue what rank will chris katongo be now? major general?

  65. Black staaaaaaaazi??? Us we are Copper Bullets, baby, and our Captain is a soldier. I guess you knew what was for you even before the game started eh. We zed for life…

  69. Zambia 1 Ghana 0. Chipolopolo iyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  72. MAWEEEEEEE WE HAVE WON VIVA ZAMBIA CHIPOLOPOLO. I MISS HOME CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS WELLL DONE ZAMBIA GOD BE WITH US.. WELLL DONE

  73. we were watching you live in Thailand boys, its nearly 1 am and my brother and i will celebrate till the morning. NESSUN DORMA!!!!!! its zambia’s hour.

    1

  77. There was nothing wrong with HRs decision to play Mayuka in second half. Ghana were the stronger team and the coach decided to spread the responsibility around and used the depth of the team. The midfield also saw a lot of substitutions too. Chisamba almost caused another fu#k up. Well done Zambia. Chipolopolo Iyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  78. i am thrilled countrymen to beat ghana i was watching it with my ghanian friends and ruled zambia out in beating them i am so so so so so happy

  80. Here we are with a lot of drivel , we have done it? Who is we ?

    Keep quiet, I have just arrived from work and made £120 in a day, now that is a fruitful life

    It nauseating and upsetting to be seeing a lot of you excited for a sport , who cares ?

    I played netball and quiet frankly I did not are whether we won or lost, I went to see Rugby and Murrayfield  when Scotland played England immediately it ended no one talked about it, we went home and prepared for work the following day

    Let us talk about creation of jobs and build your country, where will you get the wages, expenses to pay these people playing?

    So sad , learn to make prioritization something I am researching on in my PHD now.

    Grow up people

    Thanks

    • Go to hell Mushota, who cares about what you do? who celebrates what you do and to whose benefit will your PHD be? lean to be human.

  81. We have the fufu boys out , what say you mushota and all you haters who wanted Zambia to lose???
    Chipolopolo 

  82. Didnt I tell you earlier to inform Zambian breweries! Mali will meet Zambia in the Finals and Zambia will be the Champions.

    Chipolopolo is baaaack!

  83. Wow! just tears in my eyes. They wrote us off but you have done us proud. Have no words, thank you guys. See on Sunday in Libraville.

  85. @ Mushota
    Yaba Is that all you make and you claim to educated,, l pay my driver more you foolish man

  86. @ Mushota
    Yaba Is that all you make and you claim to educated,, l pay my driver more you foolish man ,

  89. Mayukwa! That’s what you call a striker. Creating a goal from nothing.
    Renard! That’s what you call a soccer tactician of the highest callibre.

  90. We are in the finals and the writing on the wall has been scribed. Nothing can change the coarse. Like it or not we are finaly there. Vivaaaa Zed and thanks to Kennedy for the save. To the scorer we are all proud of you.

  95. Zambia should continue to trust HRs technical decisions and we can win this cup. I believe he was right to share the work amongst many players other than dumping everything on one person. That was masterful.

  96. It´s the I.M.S.T (ILL Mannerd Step Child) MUSHOTA again!
    Inspired by her young age,small sized in her mind…

  97. …´´AFFECTATION´´
    A show,pretense,or display.Behaviour that is assumed rather than natural,artificiality.A particular habit,as of
    speech or dress,adopted to give a false impression.
    Affectation is planted into a person through some kind of deficit or traumatic experience that makes them feel the need to be proven with their actions
    or abilities.(Rape,Molestation,Incest,Abandonment,Neglect,Abuse,Talent Affirmations,etc.)these things when the happen to a person,the person
    feels a need to pretend that they are o.k. and to show others that they are o.k,so rather than deal with the problem they put on a false identity!
    AFFECTATION is what homosexuals thrive on and I can trust me with my life that Mushota is hard core homosexual.

  99. Mushota we love you too and we know that you are proud to be Zambian. If you are a she, I am sure Nick will be amazed at what you will do to him in bed. Go take a Abbot Ale and pamper yourself…

  104. Hahahaha, #75, true my man, no more donchi kubeba, its now donchi kuluza,,,, Walasa iweee.

  105. Great game it was. Watched it from the computer. These guys should be paid $100,000.00 each and houses built for them by the government. They will win the cup.

  106. Just like the election music theme which the boys have adopted!!!! donchi kubeba… ha ha ha ha i’m elated and ecstatic to say the least……

  107. Am seeing great kalu having a smooth ride to the helm of FAZ again. Simata n Kamanga, guys shud strategise.. mamamamamamamamama…..etc, etc, etc….

  111. God bless our Great Nation, we have surmounted the odds and sailed to the finals killing two giants on the way (Senegal and Ghana). Now we are going to give it our best shot on Sunday and we believe the grace of God – Yahweh will manifest again on behalf of our Christian Nation

  112. It will Zambia 2 Mali 0 in the finals. I wish I was back home. I miss my beloved Country. Watched the game on internet with my friends from Zimbabwe, Ivory Coast, Namibia, Ghana and Tanzania. Had fun. Good morning country men. Lets do it again on Sunday.

  117. Mushota is a bitch and Zambia will still be there regardless of you leaving the Country.Stop hating the country if you can not contribute to our society.Believe I will find you and I will make sure you are deported in SIx months I swear.

  118. Zambia should start putting in security and safety measures now. There will be chaos when that cup comes home on Monday!

  119.  Congratulations Mr. Renard. Thanks Chipolopolo boys you have make it even today. You are the giant killer many people did not count you as the best there we go.They crushed crushed and crushed us like bees in God’s name we have beaten them Zambia 1 Ghana 0 . Chipolopolo boys God bless you.   .  

  121. Zambia on the other hand will look to end their own long quest for a Nations Cup title on Sunday at the third time of asking. It is also likely to be an emotional day for the Zambians, as they return to a country off whose coast 18 Chipolopolo players died in a 1993 plane crash. Zambia captain Christopher Katongo told the BBC before the tournament: “As we go to Gabon, every heart will pump so fast when we remember what happened in 1993. The souls are still there and we have to do something about what happened to that team which perished in Gabon.” BBC Sports

  123. Yo have done it boys and shamed the black stars. The final goal is what matters goal. Go Zambia Go…. The game is played on the pitch not on paper shame to the people that wrote us out. Whether you like it or not we are number two in Africa come Sunday we are getting the trophy, The copper bullets. Thanks to the team.

  124. Yo have done it boys and shamed the black stars. The final goal is what matters goal. Go Zambia Go…. The game is played on the pitch not on paper shame to the people that wrote us out.

  125. Thanks RH you heard my prayer. I wanted Chamanga out because he was not dropping back and that is why the midfield was lacking! Those who wrote us out where are you! Even you Diaspora Zambians who were writing us out where are you. Lelo twanwa! Libraville, twaice. Some chap at MTN says Zambia was luck because Ghana missed a penalty, why can’t people just swallow their sh-i-t and admit that Zambia has been playing good football. We will prove again on Sunday. The guys are shivering. We will be 22 on the pitch.

  126. 1993, twamilisha: Come and and help us honour you

    Efford Chabala, Richard Mwanza, John Soko, Whiteson Changwe, Robert Watiyakeni, Eston Mulenga, Derby Makinka, Moses Chikwalakwala, Wisdom Mumba Chansa, Kelvin “Malaza” Mutale, Timothy Mwitwa, Numba Mwila, Samuel Chomba, Moses Masuwa, Kenan Simambe, Godfrey Kangwa, Winter Mumba, Patrick “Bomber” Banda and Godfrey “Ucar” Chitalu (coach), Alex Chola (Asst. coach) and Michael Mwape (FAZ Chairman)

  129. Thank God we are through>>>>>>>>>>>Our players played with our fallen heros. We will get the cup this time so that their souls can rest in peace…

  130. Guy, can you follow up some chap who on Supersport twitter promised that if Zambia wins, he will donate his wife! Awe mulekeni, limbi ni chipyango. Munthu angadonate kampopo!!!!!!! Go Zambia, Go, Go, Go, Zambia, Go!
    Mayuka shot down the golden stars. It is ver dark here but ticiliza…………….. iyeee, iyeee!!!!!!

  133. Check this link guys, It seems the entire Ghana will go to bed without Fufu. They have just been shot with one Chipolopolo Bullet!!!

  134. Abobo mwamona, aiyanga, niba zed, ainga, balemilanga, aiyanga ubukalibwabo, aiyanga. Zed balange, aiyanga iyanga lelo aiyanga<>

  135. What club does our goal keeper Mweene play for? The guy is very smart and has so much belief in his capabilities. The “can-do” attitude of this guy is just amazing.

  136. They are playing sorrow on almost all their Radio stations, check out the 2 links above. Lol ( Chipolopolo After Effect) @ work!!!

  137. Mweene plays for Frestate stars in RSA. 

    Watching the Ivory cost vs Mali match and the elephants are playing some really good football. Zed is watching and waiting for them. 

  139. The cup is just around the bend Please now, allow me to have that well deserved rhum,Havana club in town on my way home!!Now look away if you are a hater!

  141. Christian nation football like I said yesterday. Move on to training camp early team, work hard like you are working for Jesus. Our football was in a dungeon for years like Joseph, reappered a little and then a lions den it went like Daniel, now BOLA ni pansi the way our Lord Jesus preached that life changing sermon on the mount. SUNDAY play like revelations, start of with zeal, coordinate with fiery brimstone but end with salvation; enjoy the game. John 3:16 Jesus is the only way.

  142. To Mwanawakwitu…
    I seek permision to use your intellectual property?….The one you used y´day and the one above.

  143. #141 Mwanawakwithu Preach on, brother!

    Your words inspire me to utter:

    Heaven came down and glory filled my soul
    When Emmanuel Mayuka score that wonderful goal!!!

    Hallelujah! I’m in the spirit!!!

  144. Nice1 boys, haters will always hate. Wats important is that you’ve done the majority of us proud. All the best, God bless you.

  147. @ NINE CHALE

    Greetings my brother, Amen and Aleluyah. Yes Mayuka deserves to be in a team like Barcelona, his skills would allow them to be above Real another 15 years lol. Or even Manu because Sir Alex ferguson is great at culturing and looking after talent on and off the pitch.

  148. Well done, Zambia! you have done SADC a beaute! We are proud of you. I have been saying that,”IF ZAMBIA WILL NOT GET THIS YEAR’S CUP, YOU FORGET GETTING IT EVER! THIS IS YOUR TIME! WE here in Angola are proud of you, guys!” GOOOOOooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  149. Mushota home is home time will catch up with you and soon. For your information Zambia 1 : Ghana 0. Seems you have a lot for you to hate unser mutter land that way. Remember “was nicht vorwarts gehen kann, schreitet gehen.” Wish you the best.

  151. Mushota home is home time will catch up with you and soon. For your information Zambia 1 : Ghana 0. Seems you have a lot for you to hate unser mutter land that way. Remember “was nicht vorwarts gehen kann, schreitet zurluck.” Wish you the best. I have repeated it left zurluck or backwards.

Their souls are with us, that we accomplish the dream they had for Mother Zambia.Gabon..here we come! May God bless our land Zambia..and all its’ peoples.AMEN.

  161. Katongo, please go to Libreville with confidence, don’t settle for second place. Gabon was a source of great pain for Zambia. We need this victory and you guys can do it. Remember David and Goliath. You only have one shot and you have to aim carefully and with confidence.

    God Bless.

  163. 126# You have really made me cry, by calling our fallen heroes to come to our help. That we have made it to the finals, strong memories are chiping in. The Zambian football O them a lot. Zambia go, go go go go go go go go go go go.

  164. WE DEDICATE OUR ALL THIS TO OUR FALLEN HEROES, KK 11 THOSE WERE DAYS, LISTENING FROM DENNIS LIWEWE FROM THE 2 BAND RADIO WRITTEN ITT SUPERSONIC, OR IF U WERE RICH AT THAT TIME BLACK AND WHITE TV SET.DO U REMEMBER THE TITLE TVZ

  165. Can someone tell me a brief history of Zambia and Ivory coast the results of the past. I am certain that a good hunter can kill an elephat with one bullet. The Chipolopolo boys courage thats our cup bring it home you will never be alone. The souls of your fathers who perished near Gabon is with you.Go Zambia goooooooooo. 

  168. Everything has got time … Zambia cried alot for its fallen heroes and God saw those tears and heard the cries of Zambia … Now he is comforting the Nation. We were beaten on paper but the team spirit, the togetherness and the positive mind set is what made us do it … THIS is what the so called “favorites” lacked. am som proud to be ZAMBIAN
