ZAMBIA coach Beston Chambeshi has been forced to make a change to his team with striker Edward ‘Tiger’ Chilufya being knocked out of the team through injury.
Chambeshi confirmed in an interview that he has since roped in Russia based striker Klings Kangwa.
“We will miss Edward, he is a good player, fast winger and we have Klings Kangwa who has been playing well at his base which is good for us and for technical staff.
This is a big week for us, the team is working hard, we are just waiting for the foreign based players and we are looking forward to finishing on a good note.
“Every game is important and for that matter these are world cup qualifiers as you know we are building the team so it is an important game for us,” Chambeshi told reporters after a training session.
Zambia will face Mauritania on Saturday before going to Tunisia three days later.
Chipolopolo are third in their group with four points.
