Zesco United failed to make significant gains in their second league match of the season after drawing at home against Konkola Blades on Wednesday afternoon.
Zesco drew 0-0 with Blades in a rescheduled Week 4 match played at Musa Kasonka stadium in Ndola.
The draw sees Zesco rise up slightly from 14th to 13th on the Super Division log on two points from as many games played since the start of the league season.
Zesco have yet to win a league game after drawing 1-1 away to leaders Power Dynamos in a week 3 match played on March 28 at Arthur Davies stadium in Kitwe.
Simukonda has to work extremely hard so that Zesco recovers as quickly as possible or else he will be booted out.
