HONOUR JANZA: IT IS A STEPPING STONE! The most important thing is we did not lose the game. The first game is usually full of nerves, and we have learnt one or two things. It was a physical and tough game. We will use it as a stepping stone for the other matches. The early goal was good for us because we knew that when DR Congo scored it was going to be difficult for us to come back. We planned to put them under pressure. We were a bit careless with our passes and it gave them an easy game. If we can work on that, it would be good for our next game, Janza said after last evenings battling 1-1 draw against DR Congo. His opposite number Florent Ibenge who saw Given Singulumas 62 second opener cancelled out by man of the Yannick Yala Bolasie said: Zambia is a strong team, played well and utilized the counter attack. They are a matured team and know how to manage the game since some of them have won the Africa Cup of Nation before. During the match, they made us not sleep but we believe we can do better. Congolese captain Youssouf Mulumbu of English Premier League West Brom rued his sides profligacy in front of Kennedy Mweenes goal. Today, we deserved to win but we missed a lot of chances and could not score. We knew it was important to win but we missed a couple of chances. The fans have been supportive from the qualifiers and we hope they will be behind us in the remaining games. With Tunisia held 1-1 by Cape Verde, Group B is wide open as action returns Thursday.
