Troubled Nkana Escape With Late Draw

Nkana this afternoon snatched a late equalizer against Nchanga Rangers to gain their first point in two games.

A late goal from ex-Under-17 and Afrisports midfielder Mwila Kabwe earned Nkana a much needed point and some respite for caretaker coaches Fedelis “Josimar” Chungu and Fred “Schemer” Siame after two successive Faz Super Division defeats.

However, it might be too late to save the duo with either Kenneth “Bubble” Malitoli or Alfred Lupiya expected to be named as new coach before Friday although the duo is expected to remain as assistants.

Nkana move one place up the table from 11th to 10th place on 19 points from 16 games following their great escape act at their volatile home in Wusakile against Nchanga who opened scores through Floyd Phiri in the 24th minute.

Nchanga stay put in fourth place on 26 points from 16 games, five less than leaders Zesco United who are on 31 points with a game in hand after playing 15 matches.

And Zesco remain unbeaten in the league this season and remain at the top of the Super Division table after a 0-0 draw away to Choma Eagles in Maamba today.

Zesco enjoy a three point lead over second placed Green Buffaloes who exchanged places with Power Dynamos after a 2-0 away win over troubled City of Lusaka at Woodlands stadium in Lusaka.

Buffaloes collected the three points courtesy of goals from Kennedy Chola and Edward Museba in the 18th and 57th minutes respectively.

Power on the other hand drew 1-1 away at Konkola Blades after coming from 1-0 to share the points.

Felix Sunzu Jnr put Blades ahead in the 24th minute before Luka Lungu equalized five minutes before halftime.
