00:00South Africa later on this evening that'll be played in Cairo. Referee Shamir

00:06Abasa gets it so started. It's Zambia wearing their orange kits attacking from

00:12left to right. Sierra Leone the shooting stars making their debut in under 20

00:17football attacking from right to left. Both managers seemed quite calm quite

00:23confident as well going in however they have different styles of play.

00:28Zambia are going in with much more experience of course. One of the most

00:34successful teams in the Total Energies CAF under 20 Africa Cup of Nation.

00:38I like there has been excessive amounts so far. For viewers who watched the

00:44Classico yesterday between Barcelona and Real Madrid nothing of the sort. In

00:48swinging corner it's direct and the first save has to be made by Levison Banda

00:52swiping the ball but again he's let down by his defense a little bit because

00:56they're just unable to clear their lines and what a way to mark an opening match.

01:04It's taken it's on target no it isn't excuse me I was fooled as well but the

01:11goalkeeper Mamadou Jalou ensuring that he wouldn't be beaten fully committed to the

01:18dive. Not just curves a little bit too much at the end but the height was there just went a

01:25little bit too wide. Disappointed either the side are still in the match.

01:30Mathews Banda is going to clear that all poorly done the volley and Ba does not make them pay.

01:38It just seems like Zambia are offering a little bit too many reasons for Sierra Leone to find a solution.

01:45That was a poor clearance as poor as you can get and Ba unable to hit the target. Can he trick the new

01:57defender and he does. Gets away from the pressure. He's going to be chased upon by two

02:03Zambians including the captain Joseph Banda tracking back well even the number nine of

02:08Mulenga defending. It's all men on deck for oh it's going to go into the back of it and how does he miss?

02:15Unbelievable. The ball ping-ponged its way into the feet of the captain Momo Camara. I believe there may have been a

02:24whistle blown for offsides. Yeah Gandhi was off. Lacked quality in that switch up and could it be through

02:34individual brilliance that Zambia is going to find the opener. Can they do it? It's a poor finish. What a save as well.

02:40He had a teammate to his right. He had Banda but he's now back in the area. Banda can he get the goal?

02:45Incredible last minute. Last second. Wow. Chaos in the box to end the first half. Zambia perhaps having

02:53the best chance after suffering of the half. I mean it's a wonderful run down the middle of the heart of

02:59the defense of Pascal Fury. Believed in himself perhaps even too much because tried to get the

03:03finish all on his own had he been a little bit more generous. Could have found Joseph Banda earlier.

03:13And then the defensive bounce out of bounds and Shamir Nabata will blow her whistle for the end of the

03:24first half. It's 0-0 between the young Chipolopolo of Zambia and the shooting stars of Sierra Leone.

03:29And we're back. Zambia now in their orange kit attacking from right to left. Sierra Leone the

03:47shooting stars from left to right. Good interception there from the fullback, Aman Senja.

04:02The first...

04:02Tournament. Here comes Zambia. There's the pocket of space and their number nine is going to present

04:15himself against a goalkeeper. Amazing from Jalo. Unbelievable how that ball did not find the back

04:23of the net. If you don't attack quickly. Here's Jalo. Thought about the shot from far for a moment.

04:33It's a good cross in at the second post. Will it fall into the back of the net and that's it. Sierra Leone

04:39perhaps have opened the scoring but no. Referee Shamira Nabata seems to have blown the whistle. Did the

04:46ball go out of bounds? Interrogations here. Samuel Gandhi prevented from celebrating. Samuel Gandhi who

04:55got the final touch of the ball. So Samuel Gandhi... Did the ball go out of bounds? Oh I don't believe

05:01it did. And it's not even Samuel Gandhi who gets the last touch. It's an own goal if it is counted.

05:08Of course Zambia side. There's also Joseph Liteta. Plays in Cagliari. Not on the pitch. Andrew Mulenga of

05:15course who is substituted often. It's a shot from distance. It goes wide again.

05:23He is their designated set-piece taker Joseph Banda. A leader.

05:30By behavior but also predictable. That overlapping run to search for it. It was picked out by Zambia's

05:39defense but mistake in terms of how that was read. It's a bit chaotic here again in the Zambia box. Sierra Leone

05:47this is where they thrive. Can they make the most of it? And the cross is just not met with an effort.

05:55Oh Momo Kamara looks to his left. Finds a new substitute who's come on. Bangura is going to cut on to his right foot.

06:08Just sailed over.

06:11Kind of seemed like he was always going to be cutting on to his right. And with all the experience of a

06:16side that has already won the tournament. We would expect for them to take this match very seriously.

06:25Banda still on the ball. And he's dispossessed. By Bangura.

06:36Given by the refereeing team here. Bangura in the box. Found the back of the net but

06:42the whistle was blown previously. Before his shot was even taken. Beautiful balance on that shot,

06:48however. You can see that's the quality that they were missing. Yeah, maybe a foul in the

06:58in the duel between the two sides. The elbow. Number nine, Kogbo.

07:04Sierra Leone they have numbers going forward.

07:06Oh, it's a good pace. From Kogbo. He's met by two, three players but keeps possession. Bangura.

07:15Can he look up and find another teammate? Fakes the back heel. Cross, low cross.

07:22Number two for Sierra Leone. The volley. And it's completely scuffed by Ba.

07:27Oh, instead of looking to his left. And for Oba Kamara.

07:40It's a shame. Tick.

07:41Tick. As fast as ever to the sixth minute. And Shamir Nabada, the referee, blows her whistle for the

07:48final time of the match. It's all even between Zambia and Sierra Leone. Nothing to make the difference

07:56between the two. Tightly contested affair where Sierra Leone perhaps showcased the more ambitious and

08:03offensive brand of football. Zambia. Previous winners.
