IT HAS NOT BEEN A SMOOTH RIDE SO FAR – ANDREW KAMANGA
FOOTBALL Association of Zambia (FAZ) president Andrew Kamanga said; “It has not been a smooth ride so far having drawn both matches at the tournament. Our opening match was a 1-1 draw against DR Congo while in the second fixture we recorded an identical score line which leaves the Chipolopolo with two points and lie third in Group F. The scenario makes the final Group C match one to fight for with everything.”
“There has been a lot of positives thus far at the tournament to give us enough belief that we can get the desired result against the Atlas Lions of Morocco. We have improved as we have progressed at the tournament and should be in a stronger place in the next game. Tournaments are not sprints but marathons as everyone already knows.”
“We will be keeping it positive as we interact with the boys who have shown great character to dig themselves out of difficult situations as was the case in the game against Tanzania where they played with a man down for most of the match.”
“Our plea to the public is support the team as they represent us at this highly competitive tournament. We have ridden on the back of massive public support from home and here up to this point and expect that the team be pushed even further.”
