Power, Napsa Stars Set for Barclays Cup Final Showdown

Share

Defending champions Power Dynamos beat Zanaco today to reach their second successive Barclays Cup final.

Power defeated Zanaco 1-0 in the Barclays Cup semifinals played at Woodlands Stadium in Lusaka.

Midfielder Thomas Nyirenda headed in the all important goal in the 69th minute from a Maybin Chishimba free kick.

However, Zanaco almost stretched a late equalizer that could have sent the game to penalties but captain Michael Bwalya’s 88th minute shot went straight at Joshua Titima.

Titima parried the strike before it hit the woodwork and bounced back into play.

Power will face Napsa in the final on November 17 at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola.

Napsa booked their Barclays Cup final after beating Zesco 1-0 in the earlier kickoff of this semifinal doubleheader at Woodlands.

Harry Milanzi headed in a Mike Silavwe free kick with just three minutes played into the first half to book a mouthwatering date with Power at Levy in two-and-a-half weeks time.
