Zambia Get Defence Boost Ahead of Lesotho Match, Ghana monitors
Posted On Friday, 22nd March 2013
Zambia defender Joseph Musonda has made a late return to the Chipolopolo set up after being sidelined on account of suspension for accumulating two consecutive yellow cards at the Africa Cup of Nations in January.
Musonda, who plays for Golden Arrows in South Africa, was spotted in full training at the Soweto Nike Stadium this morning.
The session was Zambia’s final set in Johannesburg before the team leaves for Lesotho for a 2014 Brazil World Cup qualifier on Sunday.
Officials in the Zambian camp say Musonda has returned after CAF notified Zambia that the player was eligible for Lesotho because the yellow cards in different matches did not rule him out unless where it was a straight red card.
Therefore, Musonda will make the bus trip to Maseru, Lesotho this afternoon where the team is expected to arrive early evening.
He was not named in coach Herve Renard’s initial 19 and later final 23 man team.
Currently, Renard is taking his lads through the paces in Soweto before they head back to Milpark Hotel for lunch after which they will connect to Lesotho.
The team has had 10 training sessions including a practice match against Africa Sport Academy which ended 1-all during the six-day Johannesburg training camp.
Ghana and Zambia are fighting for the group’s top spot for the second phase of the 2014 World Cup qualifiers.

Go Mighty Zambia Goal…Let the Ghanaians turn white with envy.
To Ghana, zambia don’t even exist! zambia means nothing to Ghana!
To Zambia, ghana exists but we always spank her aside.
We always fuck Ghana up
Zambia 1 Lesotho 2

Zambia will win with a good margin to keep them 9 points on top.
Ghanaians are so fooling 2-0 in favour of lethoso.while Ghana will beat sudan 5-0.wat makes u tink zambia will loose and Ghana will win?shallow minded Ghanians
This is the same attitude you portrayed after you won the trophy – arrogance, stubbornness and stupidity until you were shamefully kicked out of your group at AFCON. Ethiopia made light of a defending Champion? You have NOT learned your lesson, have you?
Lesotho played to a draw against Sudan your master, so what stops them from beating you? Didn’t Lesotho beat Zambia the last time they met?
Sudan will come to Ndola to cause your greatest upset in football, WATCH OUT !!
@ King. Shut ur stinking mouth n mind up. I’m sure u were born in the 90′s. You write like a kid and reason like a toddler. Your shallow minded comments are everywhere on this website. Were u born in an asylum?
@GH 4ever yes 1991 to be specific.dummy
@ king, what kind of behaviour is that? Why not going to zambian soccernet to give comment. I am still reminding you of what Austin told you yesterday. He said “WO MAAME TWE NA EYE GAY”
@ all Zambian …….. You are all fools and stupid… Foolish deadly people… AIDs …. Kwasia ………aboa….. Especially u king…
1991 born… Disgrace to human race.. Animal
@foolish Ghanian from shoton we are 3 pionts ahead of you in wc qualifier.u will look like a total fool at the end of june so go out and cry me a big ocean
What is your current position ..in the latest FIFA ranking… There are no ghost to help u to qualify …in Ghana . Stupid …… Wo Mamme tw3… Waatii… Aboa.. Kwasia….come and qualify … Do u think AIDS patients are the ones playin int he world cup tournament ….. Useless pig… U are luck salve trade doesn’t exist .. Like I will exchange u for common salt
And who will help u now?the ref like u did to burkina faso and all those wrong penality that ape wakaso is scoring hahaha.ghana is nothing to us okay.we can beat u with Eyes closed
How many matches did the former champions win? ZERO.
You created a record in African football – the first defending champions that got kicked out in group stages. You are a shameless person.
You are big fool….is the first afcon champion to exist in group stage since 23years.afters algeria in 1990.Nigeria is actually the ist champion to exist in group stage 1980.pls update urself u moron.
There is no shame in our afcon exist bcos our group opponent are d two finalist interestingly none of them beat us.did bukinaso faso outplay us like they did to u Ghanaians????despite ref help.are we talking the wicked penality wakaso scored?or burkina faso disallowed? Or harsh red card given to pitriopa????.denied them a clear penality wat a shame
…..So if Ghana made it to the final with this shameful officiating against burkina faso so Guys will be happy??cape verde outplayed u people too…laughable
….Wakaso wants be top scorer with penalities..hahaha thankGod he missed a penality against mali
….Sudan is our master ??hahah u don’t know anytin about football go and check zambia vs sudan head to head stats.remember we beat them in group stage and 2012 afcon qualifier.
Ghana is now a laughing stock losing to the same opponent after playing/beating them in group stage(MALI).beating u in loosers(third place) final by 2 goals margin in two consecutive afcon tornament
Mali 2- 0 Ghana 2012
Ghana 1- 3 – mali 2013
Remember u beat them in group phase with Ur trade mark penality.
Lol Conclusion zambia and Ghana who is more disgraced in this 2013 afcon????coz I can see that some illiterates are on this website
@ King i actually like it when you bring facts like this I think my ghanaians would respect you more, rather than come here and insult our players. Why call wakaso an ape is he not a man created by God that is not nneeded. and to all my ghanaians dont result to insulting guys like this it is exactly what they are looking for and cut out the aids comments thats a serious desease and should not be used as a open insult. Finally @king all you comments in recent times make me laugh brother because all your talking and Ghana is still going to be in next years world cup no matter what haha whether your country beats lesotho, we dont care cos when your country comes to town in ghana I pray it be Temale or even kumasi trust me when I say we will show you why we are recognised as the true African great nation of football, and on an informative note if you think the team you saw in AFOCN will be the team that will face you then dream on, im sure by then Andre ayew and Essien will be back and maybe the bonus of essien now how can your team deal with that.
As Capleton say “THAT DAY WILL COME’ 4 now go on nd do what u got do as Baba yara awaits the final showdown.
OH YES!!!sudan will cause upset in Ndola and yea!!!!!there will allow Ghana to beat them home and away.bcos there are angry with us.lotheso they beat like there have done b4?.that means we will beat Ghana like we always do b4 u moron!!
@king, ur mom is a whore, ur dad an armrobber & urself a streetchild. That’s why u all ur comments here are childish. Ur zambians are rushing for the 2nd air clash in 2014 eh! If it happens, no one will survive this time. U are very stupid.
Samedge ur mom is a silly cunt.ur new president will clash again.u know wat I mean hahaha
@Andre u r pretty ambitious;)
I love wakaso
It’s strabge how stattistics can be twisted by those who use them. Egypt failed to qualify for Afcon 2012 after they won it in 2010. They did not even play in the preliminaries. Why laugh at zambia when we at least went to SA to defend the trophy? By the way, we did not lose a single game. For the record, Egypt has the worst record.
zambia zambia zambia ,zambia hey nalelo alewina ,we are toping the group by 8 points Sudan will draw ghana ,2014 zambia here we come .
