Trident FC: Zambian Football, Peter Musukuma's Cup Goal, Squad and Fixtures

Trident FC is a Zambian football club from Solwezi, in the North Western region, founded in 2015 and known as the Conquerors. They won the 2022/23 FAZ National Division One title and moved up to the Zambia Super League for the 2023/24 season, their first in the top flight. If you typed 'trident' expecting another club, or the name used outside sport, this is the Zambian side, the one that appears on live score apps next to the Copperbelt and Lusaka fixtures. South African readers who say soccer rather than football will find the same club, the same league and the same kick off times here.

Readers in Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana and Uganda can get to know Trident through their history, grounds and Peter Musukuma's late winner against Green Eagles in the 2023 ABSA Cup, then follow the live modules below for squad details, fixtures and results.

Which Trident Is This, and Who Are the Conquerors?

This is Trident Football Club of Zambia, the Conquerors, a club founded in 2015 and based in the North Western region. The name belongs to other teams as well, and to plenty that has nothing to do with football, which is why so many searches for it land in the wrong place. But, the Zambian Trident has a clear story of its own: a national second tier title in 2022/23, followed by promotion to the Super League in 2023. Perhaps the best way to picture them is as a young club from a mining region that reached the top table within a decade of being formed, and that is worth knowing on its own terms.

Where Is the Latest Trident News, and Who Is the Coach?

The latest Trident news, including who holds the head coach's role, sits in the live news and club modules, and those update whenever the club announces a change. Coaching jobs in the Zambia Super League can change hands during a season, and clubs between permanent coaches often name an interim, so a name written into fixed copy can be out of date within weeks. So, check the module for the current coach, the backroom staff and any transfer business, and read each item by its date. If a report has no date, treat it as background rather than the current picture.

Where Do Trident Play: Sentinel Grounds, Independence Stadium or Nkana?

Trident are based in the North Western region, and the venue names you see can differ because the club has used more than one ground. Sentinel Grounds is described as the primary home, while Solwezi Independence Stadium, with a capacity of 5,000, is also listed as Trident's ground. In August 2023, while Sentinel Grounds was being upgraded, Trident moved home matches temporarily to Nkana Stadium. So, the simplest way to know where a particular match is being played is the venue line in the fixtures module, which names the ground game by game instead of relying on one fixed answer that may not hold for every season.

How Do You Follow Trident Fixtures, Results and the Table From Africa?

Open Trident fixtures in the live modules below to check dates and grounds, then use the results module for completed matches. The Zambia Super League table, or log, shows how Trident compare with the other clubs. A victory earns three points; a drawn match gives each side one. When totals match, the competition's tiebreak rules determine the order. Use the title and relegation markers to understand what each position means, and check fixture dates alongside results when comparing clubs that have played different numbers of matches.

What Have Trident Won?

Trident's major honour is the 2022/23 FAZ National Division One title, which made them champions of Zambia's second tier and earned promotion to the Super League. The title also sits in the long running records of Zambia's second and third level champions, which gives the club a permanent place in the country's football history, whatever comes next.

The 2023 ABSA Cup also produced a defining match in the club's history: a 1-0 win over Green Eagles in March 2023, settled by a late goal from Peter Musukuma. It came in the same season as the Division One title, so the Conquerors were carrying a cup run and a promotion chase at the same time. The table below records those milestones alongside the club's founding and move into the top flight.

From Solwezi in 2015 to the Super League: The History in Brief

Trident were founded in 2015 in Zambia's North Western region, a mining region whose club reached the Super League within a decade. The decisive season was 2022/23, when the Conquerors took the National Division One title and with it a place in the Super League.

The 2023/24 Zambia Super League was Trident's first season at that level. Trident moved home matches temporarily to Nkana Stadium in August 2023 while Sentinel Grounds was upgraded.

Why Do Readers Across Africa Follow Trident?

Peter Musukuma's late goal against Green Eagles in March 2023 gives readers in South Africa a specific introduction to Trident: a player settling a 2023 ABSA Cup tie with a 1-0 winner. The squad module provides the position and nationality details available for players representing the Conquerors.

For readers in Nigeria, Ghana and Kenya, Musukuma's cup winner offers the same starting point for learning about the club. Trident are a Zambian side from the North Western region, founded in 2015 and promoted in 2023. Live score apps and the fixtures and results modules offer ways to follow their matches, with text updates where available.

Readers in Uganda can also begin with Musukuma's 2023 cup contribution, then use the squad module to explore the players and nationalities listed. Across all five countries, the live modules carry the changing match details. Trident are a name worth learning now.

How Is the Trident Squad Set Out?

The Trident squad and players are listed in the live squad module, grouped by position, with shirt numbers and nationalities where they are available, and the list updates as players join and leave. Squads in the Zambia Super League change between seasons, so the module rather than fixed copy is the right place to find the current line up. Peter Musukuma holds a place in the club's history through his late winner against Green Eagles in the 2023 ABSA Cup. That goal gives readers a named player and a specific match to connect with the Conquerors.

Which Trident Games Matter Most, and What Time Do They Kick Off?

The games that matter most for Trident are the Super League meetings with Copperbelt and North Western opposition and the ABSA Cup ties. It could be argued that a club from Solwezi meeting sides from the Copperbelt towns carries a regional interest that the table alone does not show. The ABSA Cup is the other big stage, since the 2023 run proved that a knockout tie can lift a young club's profile faster than a full league season. In the FAZ structure, the Super League sits above the National Division One, and promotion and relegation link the two levels at the end of every season, so matches near both ends of the table carry real weight.

Zambia keeps Central Africa Time, the same clock as South Africa, so a Trident match that kicks off at 15:00 in Zambia starts at 14:00 WAT, 16:00 EAT, 15:00 SAST and 13:00 GMT. The fixtures module shows every kick off converted for your country, which saves doing the sums at the last minute. So, for readers in Lagos and Accra the match comes an hour or two earlier than the Zambian clock, while in Nairobi and Kampala it arrives an hour later. Check the date on each fixture as well as the time, because Super League matches can be moved, and the module reflects any change as soon as it is confirmed.
