  1. When facing the south Africans, the coach should include sakala (ZANACO) and Fwayo tembo otherwise it will be another disappointment. Let the technical bench take note that the performance against Swaziland was not up-to par that we can even use to south Africa in the coming crucial game. its sad that we are still featuring different team at each match , not yet certain with the first 11 both at the senior and local team no wonder the coordination is ever bad. work on the best to achieve the best.
