Bottom placed and winless National Assembly Egyptian trainer Mohammed Fathi says he is happy with the goalless draw his side forced against Nkana in Wednesday’s Faz Super Division encounter at Arthur Davies Stadium in Kitwe.
Fathi said the side he took over last Thursday from sacked Wesley Mondo has started showing signs of improvement.
“Draw or win away it’s a good result, it’s not bad. I am still balancing the team and Nkana are not a bad side they are a strong
team,” he said.
“Today we missed a lot of chances but we played better than in the last game (2-1 loss at NAPSA) Next game will work harder to get three points,” Fathi added.
The ex-Power Dynamos and Kabwe Warriors expressed confidence that Assembly who have only collected 4 points after week 10 games played on Wednesday can survive relegation at the end of the season.
“If we continue picking points like this we will recover. The league is still open, 20 games remaining, 60 points. It is too early to talk
about relegation.” Fathi stressed out.
Assembly’s next fixture is a home game against league leaders Zesco United who have opened up a four-point lead at the summit of the table with 24 points under their belt.
