Coach Numba Mumamba says todays interclub friendly game between the Zambian Super League champions and Tanzanian giants Azam will enhance ZESCO United’s preparations for the CAF champions league.
Mumamba who oversaw his side trounce Lusaka Dynamos 4-0 in the 2021 Samuel ‘Zoom’ Ndhlovu final on Saturday last week expressed happiness with his sides response in training.
“Our preparations have been very good. I am very to see lads that remained last weekend due to injuries back in training. It is exciting to see everyone back in full gear.”
Meanwhile Mumamba hopes that the game between his side and Azam will boost ZESCO United’s young players confidence.
“Azam will give us another high-level game because they are big team. It is an important game for us as we prepare for our CAF game against Royal Leopards of Eswatin. This game will also give our young players a chance to have a feel of international club football. This match will give them extra confidence.”
ZESCO United will this afternoon face George Lwandamina’s tutored Azam football club in an interclub friendly match to be played at the Levy Mwanawasa stadium.
