NATIONAL team coach Beston Chambeshi is confident of excelling at the helm of the Zambia technical bench.
Chambeshi’s immediate task is to lead Zambia in the FIFA 2022 World Cup qualifiers that start when his side faces Mauritania in their opening Group B match on 1st September away in Nouchakott.
“We know what the exco wants. We even know what the people of Zambia want so we are ready to work,” Chambeshi told journalists in Lusaka.
“If we plan well with my technical staff the task will be simple. Failure is not our portion. We will try to work hard and see to it that we give a smile to our Zambian people.”
He said Zambians need to believe in Chipolopolo.
“But first we need confidence from you people that we have new people who have taken over that saddle,” he said.
Chipolopolo will also face Tunisia and Equatorial Guinea in Group B.
“For sure it is not an easy group that is why we want to plan very well. We want to take each and every game with that approach seriously, we are working hard so that we start on a good note,” Chambeshi said.
“If we plan well with my technical staff the task will be simple. Failure is not our portion. We will try to work hard and see to it that we give a smile to our Zambian people.”
The Copper Bullets beat Red Arrows 4-1 in a friendly played at Lusaka’s Nkoloma Stadium at the weekend.
Chambeshi, who also doubles as Nkana FC head coach, said the practice match against Red Arrows gave the technical bench an insight of the players’ conditions ahead of the World Cup Qualifiers.
