Zesco United spoilt Kabwe Warriors return to the Faz Super Division with an away win on a Saturday that saw promoted Kalulushi Modern Stars take the early lead on day-one.
Warriors were stunned at Godfrey “Ucar” Chitalu Stadium in Kabwe after Zesco secured the three points via a 45th minute lone goal from Tom Bakala.
They were similar 1-0 results for Power Dynamos, Nkana and Forest Rangers on the day that saw all four promoted teams tumble in Week One.
At Nchanga Stadium in Chingola, Martin Phiri’s 10th minute goal secured the three points for Power away to Nchanga Rangers.
In Ndola, Owen Kaposa scored a 42nd minute goal for Forest in their away derby win over promoted Lime Hotspurs.
Nkana coach Masauso Mwale began his tenure on a high when Festus Mbewe’s 22nd minute goal at Nkana Stadium in Kitwe secured their win over Roan United.
However, Kalulushi recorded the biggest score line when they beat hosts Konkola Mine Police 2-0 away at Konkola Stadium in Chililabombwe.
Shadreck Phiri put Kalulushi ahead in the 25th minute before ex-Nkana and Kitwe United winger William Chinse put the result beyond doubt five minutes later.
On Sunday, Patrick Phiri takes Green Buffaloes to Woodlands Stadium for a grudge match against Napsa Stars who fired him last October.
Nkwazi will be home at Edwin Emboela Stadium where they host Konkola Blades.

Kabwe Warriors need to work on a number of areas if they have to remain afloat in the FAZ Premeir division. In the game against Zesco the defence marshalled around “Ayala” looked compact most of the times but the middle field lacked creativity. This resulted in stray passes or unforced arrors whenever in possesion of the ball.The wingers who started rarely dropped to support the middle field. When ever the defense cleared using long balls Zesco had the luxury of options – either heading the ball away or starting the game from the back. I was happy the Coach for Warrios saw the gray areas and made substitutions.
Zesco may have played better than Warriors but they, too, have to up their game.On few occasions they could piece their passes but lacked that cutting edge. Entire game -…
