Zambia national soccer team this afternoon left for Angola for this Sunday’s Chan qualifier first leg. The home based side left at around 14:30 on board Angolan Airlines.
And Chipolopolo Boys trainer Herve Renard believes his charges are capable of beating the Palancas Negras despite them boasting five players that played at the 2006 World Cup in Germany.
