Nkwazi goalkeeper Maybin Phiri was rushed to Hospital today after hurting himself with just four minutes played in their Faz Super Division game away to Green Buffaloes at Woodlands Stadium in Lusaka.
Phiri crashed into the post while attempting to save the opening goal scored by Buffaloes defender Sanida Zulu.
The goalkeeper, who was replaced by veteran Sydney Tembo, was rushed to Mina Soko Military Hospital where he was admitted overnight.
Meanwhile, Nkwazi kept their very slim chances of survival alive with a late equalizer on 71 minutes scored by Chipungu Musukuma.
Nkwazi moved up from 15th to 14th for at least 48 hours before the remaining Week 27 games are played on Wednesday.
Buffaloes are 6th on 42 points exchanging places with Zanaco who only take to the pitch on Wednesday away to Red Arrows.
Too bad 4 the keeper.
get well soon son
that was an accident, however the goalkeeper should learn to stand some distances away from the goal mouth. In case of a corner kick he should be on the middle of two of his team mates standing each on left and right of the goal posts. I hope this will help avoid similar accident in future .
