Nkwazi 1-Nchanga Rangers 0

A breathtaking long-range strike from ex-Zambia, Zanaco and Kabwe Warriors attacker Edward Kangwa in the 6th minute gave Nkwazi a crucial win in their relegation battle.

Kangwa whipped in the shot from edge of the left wing just five meters from the corner line that hit the far right post before deflecting into Rangers goal past goalkeeper Obote Mweene.

However, fans were robbed of some more Kangwa magic after he suffered a leg injury just before the break and was substituted.

  14. #19. SUPPORTER, Nkana has a good enough team to remain in the Premier. I watched Nkana versus the Hachipuka-inspired Green Eagles in Kabwe and I must confess that they can put in a good fight. Plus teams at the bottom are going to be tough to beat at the tail end of the season. Even Nkwazi won.

  15. Well done Stylish Roan a point is better than no point at all!!! Keep working hard coz the battle against relegation is still on..

  16. I’m surprised LT didn’t cover this. Our own athlete Rachael Nachula has just won gold and set a Commonwealth Games record in India. I also discovered that there is no single website with full info on her and there is only on photo of her on the Internet.

    So I decided to blog on her and you can read about her achievements and history at shalalaoliversepiso . blogspot . com .

  17. Its true LT! The Nachula sisters need all the support they need. Its a miracle, if not taboo, for a Zambian to get Gold and Bronze on the World arena these days. Nganichi Esther, with her evil sport, nganamuchita report. Please lets encourage more decent sport not vandeo!

  18. Someone asked about Pay-Master up there? He is coaching some amature team in Kitwe. Let me inform you aswell that Douglas Chiwaya is still playing, but for Nkana and not as a top man but a full back. I last watched the Zesco – Nkana on Super Sport and to be honest he really played well as a full back.

  19. EAGLES UMWANA- WELL DONE FOR EGYPTITING NKANA IN KABWE ON WEDNESDAY 15 OCT 08,THE U-20 NATIONAL SOCCER TEAM AND OFFICIALS OVER THE WEEKEND WERE ALSO STRUCK BY A SIMMILAR DISEASE CALLED EGYPTITIS.A DISEASE CAUSE BY A VIRUS CALLED INJURY-TIME GOAL.PLAYERS SHOULD BE CAUTIOUS IN THE FIRST AND LAST MINUTES OF A SOCCER GAME.TWAKWELA NAUMBI, AKAWA NOMBALINE.
