There was a bit of shock when the starting line-up of the Zambian national team was released for their World Cup 2018 Qualifiers clash against Nigeria in Uyo.
Star striker of the Zambian team Patson Daka who plays for Austrian giants Red Bull Salzburg was missing from the starting line up with Alex N’gonga selected to lead the attack of the Chipolopolo.
Coach Wedson Nyirenda omitted the forward who was a doubt ahead of the game, which Zambia need at least a draw to keep their hope of qualifying for the World Cup in Russia alive.
