Updated: Weekend Scorecard: Libya Wins, Zambia Slip to Second

Share

Libya beat visitors Comoros at their temporal home in Mali on Monday evening  to win to return to the top of Group C and  dislodge Zambia from the Group C summit.

Playing in Bamako away from the civil strife back home, Libya beat winless and bottom of the table Comoros 3-0 to move to second place level on seven points while  Zambia  are a point behind on six with three games played each while Mozambique are third on four points.

Meanwhile, Zambia coach Dario Bonetti and five home based players returned home this evening from Maputo where they beat Mozambique 2-0 on Sunday.

“Everybody knew that this game was important to win and everything is in our hands now,” Bonetti said at Lusaka International Airport upon arrival.

Match day four resumes in June with Zambia hosting Mozambique on June 4.

  1. Libya are on top with seven points, Zambia six points, Mozambique four points and Comoros no point.Get your facts right LT.

  2. Ba lusaka times u ar also misleading sometimes,ask even mbesuma,we are pa number 2 with 6points.from two wins and one lose.libya 2wins 1draw.even in ba zambia kubepa.drunk report,fire him like mulongoti.

  3. Zam ni no. 2 not one ba LT. We just have to wait for them to come to Zambia thats when we ll be tops. Return matches ll stll see Zam maintaing second position as Zamb and Libya ll both win matches.

  4. LT, Its either ibange, ubwalwa or madness or all of them. How do u talk about goals when zambia has less points?

  5. LT dont mislead people please counter check your stories before you give it to the public.
    Most your stories lack facts.

  6. remove this rubbish from here.Zambia has 6 points libya has 7 points. Zambia has played 3 games win 2 and lost 1 to libya.Libya has played 3 games they won 2 games and a draw against Mozambique.Which games are u reporting?

  7. Congrats Zambia. Libya also showing they mean business, against all odds. I was waiting to hear that Libya has withdrawn, but anyway playing against Comoros, they had everything to play for. The race is tight.

  8. Much as we worn the game,the defense and midfield still needs checking.Let Sunzu play Six and find a better midfielder for Isaac Chansa.

  9. libya r really becoming a thorn in the flesh..zambia needs to ensure a double over the maambas on day 4 of the qualifiers bcoz libya is set for a double on those hopeless islanders. so its the game between zambia/libya which is likely to decide who joins botswana the current kings of southern african football…oooh! that hates but its true
