The Chipolopolos arrive

The Zambian national team will arrive the Nnamdi Azikiwe international airport, Abuja this morning ahead of the international friendly match against the Super Eagles of Nigeria tomorrow.

The Chipolopolo arrived in Johannesburg on Thursday and were immediately joined by Swiss based striker Emmanuel Mayuka. Israeli based midfielder William Njobvu and Chinese based James Chamanga joined the rest of the team Friday.

Chipolopolo coach Herve Renard included defence and midfielder maestro Stoppila Sunzu into the squad after earlier ruling the TP Mazembe star out of the game on account of his arm injury which had resulted in his arm being put in a ‘pop’ – plaster of paris.
