Mexican legend Zague talks to Bwalya about his great moment for Club America

Luis Roberto Alves ‘Zague’ relived one of his best goals during his time with Club America which was masterminded by Kalusha Bwalya.

The video posted on the 52-year-old’s timeline showed Zague volleying home with his first touch off Bwalya’s corner kick.

“I was recently talking to my dear Kalusha Bwalya ... how to remember great moments ... including one of the goals that I liked the most ... a pass from my beloved Kalu, like others! Craaack!#ClubAmerica.”

Both players formed a solid partnership in the attacking line of the Eagles between 1994-97, albeit there was no title to show for it.

Regarded as one of the greatest footballers in Zambian football history, the 1988 Africa Player of the Year scored 21 goals in 88 appearances for Club America.

Thereafter, he had stints at Necaxa, Al Wahda, Leon, Irapuato, Veracruz and Correcaminos - where he drew the curtain on his illustrious career.

A former president of the Football Association of Zambia, Bwalya managed the Zambian national team between 2003-2006.
