  1. These are the results of being stubborn, Andrew Ndanga Kamanga has failed! He’s hounded out of football circles those people that matter. Micho joined the Chipolopolo technical bench with a very rich CV than Herve Renard had. In fact Herve Renard was a nonentity whom some described as a P.E teacher. Under the leadership of Zambia’s most celebrated football star King Kalu, Renard made his CV here and brought us the AFCON. What has Kamanga done? He made Zambia lose the position at CAF when he nominated himself instead of the incumbent King Kalu, he’s excommunicated Simataa Simataa from football. He has eliminated all the people with knowhow and now this is the result, very styopeti

  2. Kennedy Mweene should have declined to be a part of this bad luck of a team because this will rub on his past glory and tarnish the record of all his past achievements. He should have just brushed-off the patriotism hogwash for the preservation of his glorious past.

  3. I want to repeat wht I said the other day. Sporting success is part of a value chain that starts with proper urban and town planning where u reserve land for various sporting disciplines. With urbanization, there’s no shortage of children and young people to take to the field, form teams and leagues that provide local competition where skills are tapped and developed. It’s being superstitious to expect success from the rot that exists in Zambian towns now. Andrew Ndanga Kamanga is just one small cog in the wheel.

  4. Murinio, Frank Lampard all got fired. What is special about Micho?
    Give Chipolopolo to young, give job to Chris Katongo and Isaac Chansa.

  5. Brian Mwila has everything a player should physic, pace but finishing or the stage was too big for him? I think coach should be fired immediately. Get another person for the last games. Very embarrassing

  6. The 2nd lady in Eswatini was very happy yesterday.
    The National Team was only doing a presidential favour by throwing the game to Eswatini.

  7. Football has 5 parts,
    Government – has always provided the much needed sponsorship
    FAZ which is Football administration which has always done its job even organizing high profile friendly matches.
    Technical bench – the coach has been very inclusive and you can see he wants to work
    Players – The Zambian players deserve to be detained in police cells the way Zairean President Mobutu use to handle national team underperformance
    Soccer fans – ever there and supporting all the way

  8. Government has done its part, FAZ the same, Coach the same, Fans the same, so why are our players missing open mouth goal posts, and you want to blame the coach

  9. Failing to score is not a national team coach issue, it starts at the club. That is why former Zambia National team coach Bukhard Ziese when going correctly said I don’t score goals. A national team coach works on coordination and balancing the team, not the goal is wide open and a chap misses and you start blaming the coach, how
