Blades win at Arrows

Share

Konkola Blades began life without Peter Kaumba with an important away league win over Red Arrows this afternoon at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka.

Blades beat hosts Arrows 1-0 to move up a notch from 12th to 11th on the table  on 17 points, two less than the homeside who stay put in 8th place despite the defeat.

The visitors got the winner on a cold and windswept Nkoloma field thanks to a 48th minute goal scored by Chipulu Chileya.

The win marked a good start to Chewe Mulenga’s second stint as head coach following Kaumba’s resignation on Tuesday after a string of unconvincing performances.

Blades next match will be on Saturday when they visit bottom of the table Nakambala Leopards in Mazabuka in a rescheduled Week 6 game before the league takes a one-month recess.

  1. what is happening to City of Lusaka you started well…you got supporters from ku Chilenje here in london

  2. iam surprised Chewe Mulenga is still alive. He was a good player with Kabwe Warriors and then he was shipped to Ndola with the Rail-Express. Anyone know where Chrispin Simwanza is? He was the best middle fielder for the Forest Rangers.
