Nkana’s four-match unbeaten run came to an end today when they were beaten by Choma Eagles in Maamba.
The 11-time league champions lost 2-0 away to Keegan Mumba’s Choma in the Gwembe Valley and in the process slip from third to fifth on the Super Division table.
Nkana’s loss comes on the back of an important 1-0 home win over Zanaco a week ago on May 1 in Kitwe.
Meanwhile, Choma and Nkana were scoreless going into halftime today before Oscar Kachika put the hosts ahead in the 66th minute.
Lewis Macha made it 2-0 in the 70th minute to hand Nkana’s first league defeat since losing 1-0 away to Konkola Blades on March 27 in a week 23 match.
Elsewhere Nchanga Rangers share top spot with Zesco United after a 2-2 away draw at Power Dynamos in Kitwe while Nkwazi beat Roan United 1-0 at Edwin Imboela stadium in Lusaka.
At Woodlands stadium in Lusaka, Green Buffaloes thumped promoted national Assembly 4-1 thanks to goals from Kennedy Chola brace.
John Musukwa and Dears Kakunta added a goal each while Fackson Kapumpu scored Assembly’s lone goal of the match.

How can Nkana loose like this and who are these tonga footies ???? I wish we can have these big changes in politics too replacing Mwanga,sata William B etc with new blood.Tired of people talking about who has the most dangerous /killer disease instead of development issue.

I think football is changing fast now Nkana v Choma, i would not be surprised Bolton beats Chelsea as champs insted of Arsenal next season
Yaaah! But ba Nkana ba these days… beaten by Choma Eagles! Icilata chalipwa ayi!!!!
Soldier on Brave Ranger, we want to be fighting to win the league come November/December where there are no suspect boardroom decizionz.
It’s early days. Already ZANACO on the wrong position of the table, they will surelt rise. But nice to see promoted teams in the top four. Hope they wont burn out like Burnley in the English league. Wish all the team good luck.
