Zambian Sports Minister Kenneth Chipungu admitted that the upcoming qualifier with Egypt will be tough, stressing on his disappointment with the Chipolopolo. Zambia will host Egypt on October 10th in a crucial World Cup qualifier for the latter, who must win in Chililabombwe to keep their South Africa hopes alive. The Chipolopolo on the other hand, have their focus limited on reaching the African Cup of Nations as they need a draw to make the Angola finals. "Zambia will not have it easy when they face Egypt because they are a quality side," minister Chipungu was quoted by Zambian media. "They need to work extra hard, it won't be easy to beat Egypt because they also want to qualify for the World Cup." Zambia are currently third in Group C with four points, six points adrift of leaders Algeria and three above bottom side Rwanda. Mother Zambia Chipungu revealed his dismay with the results achieved by Zambia so far in the qualifiers, adding that the government always backs the team to deliver. "I always want to see the national team win but they always disappoint me, the results that are coming through are not encouraging," he added. "We give them money but I don't know what is wrong, the players are not serious they don't want to die a little for mother Zambia."
