He described Zambia’s Sakala as a good player with a knack for goals having watched him score goals in his previous games.
“Zambia has some good players some of whom play in Europe, they have a very good player, last time the number 10 scored a goal,
“But we came here to play, we gonna play our football no more experiments , for me if I win this game it’s gonna be a bonus because Zambia are the favourites ,” Ngoya said.
Ngoya noted that despite Zambia being a better side than Congo Brazzaville his side were not intimidated.
He said he would use the game to build a future national team.
