Zesco United thump Green Eagles

Defending Faz Super Division champions this afternoon crushed promoted Green Eagles 4-0 at the Trade Fair Grounds in Ndola to brighten in their fluctuating league fortunes.

And on Saturday, Nkana failed to end their nine-year old winless draught against Nchanga Rangers after they were beaten by their hosts in Chingola.

Meanwhile, Zesco’s win means they moved one place up the table from 7th to 6th on 30 pints, six less than leaders Red Arrows who drew 1-1 at home on Saturday against Roan United at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka.

Goals from Winstone Kalengo, Jackson Mwanza, Maybin Mwaba and John Chingandu sealed the three points for Zesco.

And at Arthur Davies in Kitwe today, Power Dynamos defeated Konkola Blades 2-1 to see the two teams exchange places on the table in second and third places respectively.

A brace by Felix Nyaende for Power handed Beston Chambeshi’s side their first win after two successive defeats.

Ex-Power striker Elson Mkandawire scored Blades consolation.

And at Nchanga Stadium 24 hours earlier, Nchanga maintain their longstanding unbeaten run against Nkana whom they beat 1-0 courtesy of a 2nd minute goal scored by Bwalya Kasonde.
