LUSAKA, Nov. 15 (Xinhua) -- Zambian President Edgar Lungu on Friday said the 5-0 loss to Algeria in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier match was unacceptable.
On Thursday night, Zambia were beaten 5-0 by Algeria in the Group H of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier game.
The Zambian leader made the remarks in a statement posted on his Facebook page.
