Zambian national football team have suffered a big blow ahead of their 2018 World Cup qualifying match against Nigeria, with two of the eleven foreign-based professionals called up for the tie withdrawing from the squad.
South African side Platinum Stars, Brian Mwila and K.V Oostende midfielder, Emmanuel Banda have been ruled out of the game after failing to recover from injury, and coach Wedson Nyirenda has since replaced the duo with Power Dynamos midfielder, Alex Ng’onga and Zesco United’s John Ching’andu.
Mwila endeared himself to Zambia fans after netting a brace in a 3-1 win over Algeria at the Heroes Stadium on September 2.
”Brian will not be part of the team as he had a recurrence of the injury he suffered during the Algeria game. It is best to give him time to fully recover,” Team Doctor George Magwende said to Fazfootball.com.
The Zambia squad will leave for Accra, Ghana on Sunday, October 1 ahead of the meeting against Nigeria.
