Zambian Captain Lubambo Musonda Shines in Silkeborg’s 3-0 Victory
Zambian national team captain Lubambo Musonda made a triumphant return to his Danish club, Silkeborg IF, following his stint at the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). Musonda played a full match as Silkeborg secured a commanding 3-0 victory over Klaksvíkar Ítróttarfelag of the Faroe Islands in an Atlantic Cup fixture on Tuesday.
Musonda‘s return to club action marked his first appearance for Silkeborg since representing Zambia at the continental tournament. At AFCON, Musonda played a significant role for the Chipolopolo Boys, starting in two matches and coming off the bench in another.
Back in club colors, Musonda showcased his leadership and skills, contributing to Silkeborg‘s impressive performance in the Atlantic Cup. This victory, following their earlier win against Swedish side IFK Göteborg, places Silkeborg at the top of the table with six points from two matches.
The Atlantic Cup, held in Portugal, serves as a pre-season/mid-season tournament for European clubs from leagues that do not operate during the winter months. Silkeborg IF, known for their strong performances in the competition, aims to replicate their success this year.
With Musonda‘s return bolstering the team’s midfield, Silkeborg IF looks poised for continued success in the Atlantic Cup. Their next challenge awaits them on Friday against IF Elfsborg, as they strive to maintain their winning streak and further solidify their position at the top of the table.
