Skipper Rainford Kalaba says Zambia will respect Kenya in Sunday’s Group E Africa Cup
qualifier away in Nairobi.
Kalaba said the match was a crucial one for Zambia after having drawn their opening
match against Guinea Bissau before the home crowd.

“Kenya is a very strong team; they have got a lot of professionals playing overseas. We just have to respect them we have not
played them in a long term,” said the TP Mazembe midfielder. “We just have to listen to the coach and put more effort and get the best result there.”

He said that Zambia had no choice but get three points to ease the pressure on the team. “This is a crucial game for us. We have to get the three points,” Kalaba said.
