The Coach is fully aware of how troublesome Chambishi can be, and has stressed on how much the opponent should not be underrated by his side.
“They’ve beaten teams like Nkana and Green Eagles at home. Eagles are not easy to beat at home, so it means which should not underrate them,” Coach Perry adds.
