Updated with Results: Zanaco Cash in on Warriors

Share

Kabwe Warriors two-match winning run came to a stretching halt on Saturday after Zanaco beat them 2-0 at Sunset Stadium in Lusaka.

And leaders Red Arrows lead at the top of the Faz Super Division table has been cut from five to two points after losing away to second placed Konkola Blades.

At Sunset, Warriors brief place in the sun came to an end when a technically superior Zanaco beat them to complete back-to-back league wins by the same margin this season.

Fabrice Mbimba opened the scores with a fantastic header from a Judge Mkandawire cross in the 5th minute in a game Warriors huffed and puffed throughout to find any rhythm.

Zanaco had numerous chances but was let down by some haste finishing from their DR Congo-born attacker Mbimba.

Jacob Mupeta made it 2-0 in the 70th minute after blasting layoff from Ignatius Lwipa.

At Konkola Stadium in Chililabombwe, Arrows lost 1-0 away to hosts Blades.

A 15th minute goal from forgotten man Martin Daka in the 15th minute sealed Arrows fate in no-man’s land.

Arrows stay put on 36 points while Blades move from 31 to 34 points as coach Keagan Mumba continues to chase dreams of Blades and his first coaching career Super Division title.

And at Musa Kasonka Stadium in Ndola, Power Dynamos failed to recover from their 1-0 derby loss to Nkana last weekend to suffer an even more embarrassing away loss to bottom placed Kalewa.

Kalewa beat Power 1-0 to collect their second three points of the season to see Power tumble from second to third place.

Nkana on the other hand shifted a gear from 6th to 5th place after a 2-1 win over Nakambala Leopards courtesy of goals from the familiar scoring duo of Reynold Kampamba and Evans Kangwa.
