Ex-Nkana coach Linos Makwaza says the defending champions will bounce back from their low-key start to the 2014 FAZ Super League season.
Nkana have kicked-off their title defence with three consective goalless draws.
But Makwaza believes the team he coached from 2010-2012 will pull through the bad patch which has seen them fail to win in their last six competitive matches.
The Power Dynamos legend said Nkana are still in the race to defend their 12th Super League title.
“Nkana are still league title contenders. Football is always like that, some times you go through such bad patches,” he said.
Makwaza encouraged Nkana supporters to rally behind their team.
Nkana supporters recently verbally abused captain Sydney Kalume and winger Simon Bwalya during training and accused the duo of under-performance.
“I think for Nkana it is now when they need their supporters. If supporters start insulting or bullying them now they will instill fear in the players,” he added.
Aba yellow
Mwalisamwa saana previous season bane, its time to dance pelete!
Aba Yellow..ebabako. You denied us the championship in 2012… only to lose to Zanaco when the leaque had to go to the wire on the last day, which gifted the bankers the title…at our expense? No favour nor mercy this year!
Nkana is finished just like Man U. They won’t even be counted among the top four. Watch this space.
