FINAL DATE AND KICK OFF TIME SET

The final of this year’s Cosafa Castle Cup will be played in Lusaka on Saturday, October 21 when Zambia host Angola, organisers have announced.
Zambia won the right to host this year’s final in a draw made after the completion of Angola’s semifinal win away over Zimbabwe in Harare last month.
Angola, who were one of five African countries who competed at this year’s World Cup finals in Germany, are chasing a record fourth title.
Zambia won the first two editions of the Cosafa Castle Cup in 1997 and 1998 but have not tasted success since.
In 2004, Angola beat Zambia to a third title when they won 5-4 o penalties after a goalless draw in the final played in Lusaka.
This year’s final kicks off at 1300GMT.
