Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>The Zambia U-20 national team has been drawn in group A of the 2022 COSAFA U-20 Championship. Zambia has been drawn with hosts Eswatini, Botswana and Mauritius in Group A.<\/p>\n

Coach Chisi Mbewe is expected to name his squad as he begins preparations for the tournament which will also act as a qaulifier for the 2023 TOTALENERGIES U2O AFCON in Egypt.<\/p>\n

Zambia will be hoping to add to their 11 titles, the last of which came in 2019 under Mutapa, who had also led the national Under-17 side to the COSAFA title that same year. The tournament returns after being cancelled last year due to the Coronavirus pandemic. The tournament will run from October 6 to 16th in Eswatini.<\/p>\n
