Our strong defence will raise the Ba against Demba, says Clifford

January 10, 2012 Winger cum striker Clifford Mulenga has warned Demba Ba that the Chipolopolo Boys defence are capable of keeping the in form Newscatle United striker quiet ahead of Zambia’s African Cup of Nations opening tie against Senegal in eleven days time. The Bloemfontein Celtic forward is known for his confidence and not shy to express his opinion, and this time, he has delivered what many module consider as just mere talk owing to the fact without the banned Emmanuel Mbola, the defence looks like Zambia’s weakest link atleast on paper. “Demba is a good player but he has to work extra hard past our strong defence,” said Cliffird. With the final 23 players to do duty at AFCON known, many fans are still guessing on the composition of the back four but going by the training sessions in Johannesburg, then all is pointing to the Nyambe Mulenga, Stopilla Sunzu, Kampamba Chintu and Joseph Musonda. Herve Renard is yet to abandon his plan to feature the skillful Chisamba Lungu as a full back and as evidenced from the win over Jomo Cosmos, the Russia based playmaker was the only player who featured in both halves, firstly as a left full back and then left wing. He flourished in both positions as Renard is left in a dilemma though if it was fans picking the team, they would slot him in advanced role. But the talking point on the streets of Lusaka has been on how and if the defence can stop the Demba Ba after he scored his 15th league goal of the season against Manchester United last week. For Clifford, there’s no doubt, Chintu and While Senegal had even the luxury of leaving Manchester United Mame Biram Diouf out of the squad owing to lack of game time at Old Trafford, Clifford said equally Zambia has a high number of professionals and echoed his captain Chris Katongo’s words last week that it module be the team which will want it most. “It is about who wants it more as we also have about 20 professionals in the team,” adds the Kabompo born winger. Last night Justin Zulu and Given Singuluma were released from the squad as Renard named his final squad Zambia is expected to play South Africa tomorrow before wrapping it with a tie against Namibia on Saturday.

If every player is disciplined and play according to script we can have a positive result against the much fancied Senegal. Footbal z a game wch z affected by history. Traditionaly we have not struggled against Senegal. If my memory serves me well we are equal on statistics Senegal has beaten us the exact number of times we have beaten them Bola panshi.
