GL Names 18 for Ferroviario Clash

Skipper Jacob Banda, defender Kelly Sichilya and striker Jackson Mwanza have all been replaced with Brown Nyirenda, John Ching’andu and Maybin Mwaba respectively.

In what looks like an attack minded squad, the changes GL has made are aiming at strengthening the squad going forward to improve the cutting edge in front of goal as United were guilty of missing a myriad of goals in Mozambique last Sunday and the gaffer wants that to change.

“We want to improve our sharpness in front of goal to ensure that we score goals because we need goals to go through in this tie and a win is not an option at this moment,” he said.

Zesco United squad to face Ferroviario :

Lameck Nyangu , Brown Nyirenda , Bernard Mapili ,Charles Siyingwa ,Bornwell Silengo,Daut Musekwa,Gift Sakuwaha, Kondwani Mtonga,Justin Zulu, Simon Silwimba, Mathews Nkhowani, Clatous Chama, Kangwa Chileshe, Maybin Mwaba, John Ching’andu, Lazarous Kambole, Winston Kalengo and Mwape Mwelwa.
