Zesco United, TP Mazembe Draw

Zesco United were this afternoon held to a draw at home by 2009 Caf African club champions TP Mazembe in an international friendly match played at the Trade Fair Grounds in Ndola.

The match ended 1-1 with both goals in the international club friendly match coming in the opening 45 minutes of the game.

Zesco were first to score and went ahead in the 15th minute thanks to a penalty converted by striker Enock Sakala following a handball inside the area.

TP equalized seven minutes later through Paku Kabangu who also scored from the penalty spot.

This is after defender Nyambe Mulenga had handled the ball in the box.

The result was the DR Congo giants’ second successive draw on their week-long training camp in Zambia after also finishing 1-1 in their first game last Saturday against Power Dynamos at Arthur Davies stadium in Kitwe.

TP face Nchanga Rangers on Thursday at Nchanga stadium in Chingola.
