Full Chipolopolo squad train in Turkey ahead of Congo friendly

A full strength Chipolopolo squad had their first training session in Antalya on Thursday afternoon.

Zambia coach Aljosa Asanovic took the squad through their paces in Turkey ahead of Friday’s international friendly match against Congo Brazzaville.

“The boys looked sharp in training especially Lameck Banda and Mwepu,” said ZamFoot Crew’s European correspondent said

“And the defender Dominic [Chanda], he has the potential.

“I was impressed with the technique of most of the players,” he added

The six players – Enock Mwepu, Lubambo Musonda, Emmanuel Banda, Lameck Banda, Aime Mabika and Frankie Musonda – were joined by the Lusaka contingent led by Evans Kangwa.

Asanovic is expected to name a full strength starting line up.

Both sides are preparing for the Ivory Coast 2023 African Cup of Nations qualifiers.

After the Zambia game, Congo will play against Sierra Leone.
