Nkana back on top

Share

Nkana returned to the top of the FAZ Super League for the first time in two months thanks to a brace from Reynold Kampamba in a 2-1 home win over bottom placed Lime Hotspurs at Nkana Stadium in Kitwe today.

Lime were not as bad as the score line suggested and equaled their hosts who have the previlage of home advantage on their side.

Nkana were forced to rally after Lime took the lead in the 14th minute through Victor Kashitu.

The home side equalised a minute later through Kampamba who converted a penalty after Kobe Chipeta handled the ball in the box.

Lime were unlucky not to retake the lead in the32nd minute when Nkana goalkeeper Makasa Mufwaya saved a Bobby Chansa shot before the two sides went 1-1 into the break.

Nkana’s winning goal came in the 61st minute when Kampamba turned in a Rabby Lwambula cross.

Nkana move up to 43 points, one more than Zesco United whom they exchanged places with.

This is after Zesco could only manage a scoreless home draw against Red Arrows in Ndola.

Meanwhile, Nchanga Rangers came from behind to beat Green Buffaloes to rise from fourth to third at Nchanga Stadium.

Allan Mukuka put Buffaloes ahead in the 54th minute before Bornwell Mwape and Martin Daka hit the target in the 59th and 68th minutes respectively.
