Zesco United this afternoon collected the first silverware for 2011 when they beat Nkana 3-0 in the Samuel ‘Zoom’ Ndhlovu Charity Shield final played at Arthur Davies Stadium in Kitwe.
The defeat was a crushing blow to Nkana who reached the final by default after their semifinal opponents Nchanga Rangers pulled out of the match due to a two-week pre-season training camp in South Africa that they began last Thursday.
Meanwhile, Zesco took a 2-0 lead into halftime during the first 45 minutes that Nkana played all the good football but were blunt in attack despite being urged on by a partisan crowd at a two-thirds packed Arthur Davies this afternoon.
Kangwa Chileshe whipped in the first goal in the 40th minute from close range before Alfred Luputa gave Zesco a comfortable lead dead on 45 minutes in similar fashion.
Ian Kafusha came close midway through the second half to getting a goal for Nkana but his tame header bounced off the crown of his head and out of play.
Zesco made sure of the win with the third goal through 73rd minute substitute Innocent Mwaba who rifled in a shoot from the half circle outside Nkana’s penalty area.
For Nkana, they were consoled when they walked away with medals before their committee members made a mad rush for the remainders on offer that were handed out by Faz president Kalusha Bwalya.
I know this is not natubalondole but
I would appreciate if anyone knows a guy by the name of Brown Mwale in Kitwe. He is 41 years old and works for the copper mines. He went to school in Chingola at Chingola secondary school, class of ’89. I owe him money from back then and I would like to pay him back.
Thanks.

Well done Fighton and the Ndola boys.Please ensure that preps are underway for our continental engagements.
Zambia Chi-puba Caonalula Mine (ZCCM), Mopani has killed us! Who will deliver us from them? Can anyone please take over Nkana? Maybe we need Katumbi from neighboring Shaba to cosponsor T.P. Mazembe and our Nkana! Abash Mopani!
Country men and women lets give Mr Michael Chilufya the vote in 2011.Trust me this man will change Zambia. Lusaka will be totally clean, hospitals will have medicines roads will be built and govt stealing will be a thing of the past. Please lets give this TIGER of a man a chance in 2011. Vote SATA!
Nkana went with Moses Simwala ku mashamo. Ukupwa uku zoona.
#8 we are giving the man a chance this year do not worry lesa wabonse.
No #1 how much z involved so that we calculate how much you shud gve him before we give you his where abouts. elo wali kwisa pakufilwa ukubwesha inkongole for 22 years? lilya waiba elyo walalota ifiloto ifibi elo walatontonkanya ati mbweshe nkongole!
#11 Imitwe – Actually it wasn’t money. He had lent me something and the item was stolen while in my possession. All these years I had not been in a position to pay back until now.
Making it right – I think I know him. How does he get in touch with you?
Back to the story. What is the integrity in this match? The rightful team to play is away in RSA. The current FAZ is a disaster.
#5 I agree with you. Linos used alot of charms last season, I once blogged here that time will catch up with him soon. How did Nkana even end up among the top 4 teams in Zambia? Are they better than Power, Zanaco etc? They licked Kalu’s boots and he awarded them points. They are division 3 material. They are on their way out this season with Kalu. Well done Zesco.
