What changes would you like to see Coach Avram Grant make in his team today when they take on Niger? Zambia recorded an impressive 4-2 win over Congo Brazzaville in their opening 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier on Friday. However, the Chipolopolo boys allowed two goals in the space of less than two minutes in the 13th and 15th minutes, raising concerns among supporters and football bloggers in the country. The two conceded goals were attributed to a lack of midfield dominance, poor defending, and poor positioning by goalkeeper Francis Mwansa. This has led to calls for changes to be made in the team's lineup for today's match against Niger in Morocco. The debate over whether to drop Mwansa for the Niger match has divided supporters, with some calling for his benching and others advocating for sticking with the winning team. However, coach Avram Grant is known for making his own decisions and is unlikely to be swayed by public pressure. With the aim of securing a second win in Group E and maintaining their position at the top of the table, Zambia will be looking to put in a solid performance against Niger. A win would bring the Chipolopolo boys closer to their dream of making their first-ever World Cup appearance.
