Zambia coach Herve Renard wants to do the talking on the pitch when he faces Ghana on Friday in the final Group D World Cup of qualifier.

The Frenchman was a physical trainer for the Black Stars at the 2008 Nations Cup before he was appointed Chipolopolo boss.

Renard beat Ghana twice last year with his Zambia side- a 1-0 semi-final win at the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations and replicated the same scoreline in the corresponding fixture last June.

"I receive a lot of calls from our friends from Ghana, they always say the same ‘winning’. The best is to talk on the 6th of September. I'm sorry," Renard said.

"It's a big pleasure (to return to Ghana) but my biggest pleasure will be to beat them."

Zambia are training in Johannesburg and will arrive in Ghana on Wednesday.
