Share

Zanaco caretaker coach Aggrey Chiyangi is pleased with the Bankers’
2-0 victory over Konkola Blades in the FAZ Super Division Week 13
match at Konkola Stadium in Chililabombwe on Saturday.

The rare win in Chililabombwe, lifted the defending champions into
fourth place on the Super Division table with 20 points.

In a post match interview, Chiyangi said the win was motivation to his
team ahead of this Wednesday Week 14 match against Zesco United in
Lusaka.

First half goals from strikers Davies Mwape and Aubrey Zulu propelled
Zanaco to their first away win against Blades at Konkola Stadium since
2003.

“We are happy that we have won, we played well in the first half but
in the second half we were not so much aggressive, it’s like we sat
too much behind,” he said.

Chiyangi added:” “Yes, I am very happy with the form and performance
of the team. In life when there is a transition some times it takes
time for people to settle down and realize that this is what has
happened.

“The players have now realized that they have to play the game despite
our head coach (Keagan Mumba) not being there.”

Mumba is serving a three-month suspension slapped on him by FAZ for
allegedly bringing the name of the game into disrepute.
