Mbabane to serve Zesco United
Zesco United close to the death before this encounter could have suprised everyone with the massive win away in Swaziland but it’s a team with a lot of belief and are now in a position to continue believing as we head into the last round of games in the group.
The 3-0 victory courtesy of a Lazarous Labile Hatrick believed to be the fastest hat trick in the competition means Zesco United will have to beat Etoile du Sahel on the last group game and hope Mbabane Swallows lose to Premerio de Agosto in Angola.
With the 1-1 draw in Tunisia between Etoile du Sahel and Premerio de Agosto, destiny is out of ZESCO UNITED’s hands as the win for Premerio de Agosto in their next encounter will send Zesco United out of the competition with the Angola outfit making it alongside Etoile Du Sahel.
That 1-1 draw in Tunisia keeps Agosto second on 6 points, one more than third placed Zesco United and t&e next game are on 28th August were Premerio de Agosto hosts Mbabane Swallows and Zesco United beat Etoile Du Sahel.
Zesco United could still qualify should Mbabane get a draw away with the Zambian team getting a straight win at home. Anything less won’t be enough for a quarter final berth.
Mbabane themselves could qualify by beating the Angolan side and Etoile Du Sahel beating Zesco United
