Zesco United head coach George Lwandamina regards every Caf Champions League match as a final after his side claimed a 2-0 win over Green Mamba of Swaziland.
Saturday's match saw new striker Umaru Kasumba open his goal account at Zesco United with the other goal coming from John Chingandu. Lwandamina was leading his club to a first competitive tie before the FAZ Super Division 2019/20 season kicks-off on August 31.
“I told you [reporters] it would be a tough game because, for us, it is just our third week of our pre-season, so this game was part of our pre-season because in football there are no short cuts,” Lwandamina is quoted as saying by Lusakatimes.
