The Zambian side recorded 1-0 victory over the Buccaneers in the 2019/20 Caf Champions League preliminary round first-leg match in Lusaka on Saturday.

Pirates dominated possession against the tournament debutants in an encounter which was played at the Nkoloma Stadium, but they could not find the back of the net.

Chiyangi, who is also Zambia caretaker coach, explained why he was happy to allow the visitors to dominate possession.

“I was not concerned about the possession they had because when I talk about the experience that’s what an experienced team would do," Chiyangi told Zambian Football.
