Zambia Under-17 thrashed Namibia 8-0 in the Cosafa U17 Cup.
Mapalo Simute scored his first goal in the
first minute with Robert Banda involved in the move.
On four minutes, Simute netted his second goal from a rebound to send the Zambia
spectators at the stadium into a frenzy.
Zambia were quick both on and off the ball and Namibia struggled to contain them although they launched a few counter-attacks after winning the ball deep in their half.
Zambia dictated matters in midfield where Vincent Mutondo was operating. Also, Felix Phiri and Simute troubled Namibia’s full-backs with their speed and movements on and off the
ball.
In the 43rd minute, Abel Nyiringo scored a header from a Jonathan-Kalamina’s long diagonal
pass.
Three minutes later, Jonathan Kalimina added his name on the scoresheet to net a fifth goal for
Zambia.
Gabriel Phiri scored another goal for Zambia in the 82nd minute and added the other in
87th minute. Phiri completed his hat-trick in the 90th minute.
The Zambian defence was marshaled by James Sibene.
In the other Group B match Zimbabwe beat eSwatini 5-1.
FULL-TIME: Zambia 8-0 Namibia
Mapalo Simute 1’, 4’, Abel Nyirongo 43’, Milko Solunga (OG) 46’, Jonathan Kalimina 50’, Gabriel Phiri 83’, 88’, 90’
We await the battle of the Zambezi.
