Africa-Press<\/a> – Zambia<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Former Zambia striker Mwape Miti says the current Chipolopolo squad lacks experience to compete at the high level. 1996 Africa Cup star Miti said youngsters are being rushed into the National Team minus proper graduation.<\/p>\n

The former Denmark based star\u2019s lamentations comes in the wake of Zambia\u2019s 2-0 loss to Tunisia in Tuesday\u2019s 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifier at home in Ndola. Miti, the ex-Power Dynamos and Mulungushi Chiefs player, said Tunisia are beatable.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know we are building a National Team but the manner in which we are building is not the best. There are so many young players who have no experience to play at that high level,\u201d he said from his Kitwe base.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor us, when we started playing for the National Team, we used to sit on the bench and watch. Right now most of the young players are rushed into the starting line up without sitting on the bench,\u201d Miti said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the technical bench let them pull up their socks. Let the technical bench do the right thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Miti added: The loss to Tunisia pains me. It hurts me. Not too long ago we beat Algeria home and away under Wada (Wedson Nyirenda) and why can\u2019t we beat Tunisia.\u201d<\/p>\n

After two rounds of matches, Zambia is second in Group B of the World Cup campaign on three points together with Equatorial Guinea, three behind leaders Tunisia. Attachments area<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
