Zambia national team doctor George Phiri has explained how they have implemented Caf’s coronavirus regulations ahead of African Nations Championship opener against Tanzania.
Chipolopolo and Taifa Stars will be the first Group D teams to take to the pitch at 19:00 before Guinea and Namibia clash later on at 22:00.
“Each player has hand sanitisers, each room has a bottle of hand sanitiser, we also encourage the players to regularly wash their hands because that is one of the important guidelines,” Phiri was quoted as saying by FAZ Facebook page.
