Mwale- Nkana are not panicking after derby draw

Nkana coach Masauso Mwale says they are not panicking that the title will be decided on the last day of the season.

The 11-time champions drew 1-1 away in a riveting derby clash at Power Dynamos to send the title chase to the last day of the season.

That result was exacerbated by second placed Zesco United’s 3-2 win over Zanaco to see the Ndola side cut Nkana’s lead from four to two points.

“It (The draw) hasn’t complicated anything we are still on course,” Mwale said.

“We have a game to play against Arrows so I think we are on course.”

Mwale added that they will not count on Nchanga Rangers to beat Zesco when the latter travel to Chingola to play the former this weekend in Week 30.

“It doesn’t put pressure on us we have to win our own game to play. We have to work hard and win the game,” Mwale said.

A draw for Nkana against arrows and an away victory for Zesco at Nchanga will see the Ndola club win the title on a superior goal difference.

Nkana, who are chasing an unprecedented 12th title and their first since 2001, have not left the top two bracket of the FAZ Super Division table since the start of the season.

    • @Simangulungwa. Really? Arrows are known for breaking hearts of over-confident potential winners like you, ask Power in last seasons grand fianale! You underrate Arrows at your own peril! They have the potential to put up another sterling performance and spoil it all for you.

    • Well Chris, I am speaking for Nkana and what they will do next weekend. You are entitled to speak for Arrows.

      I still maintain that Kalampa will humble Arrows and win their 12th title. My optimism cannot be dumpened by what Arrows achieved against power last year. I live in the present.

    • Well my friend, I was not speaking for Arrows, moreover they have nothing to gain or lose in this game. I was only trying to be helpful by pointing out what Nkana is up against, but since you choose to be obstinate and simplistic, I can only wish your lads good luck.

  3. Let ZESCO win the league for continental purposes and fun maturity… These Jerabos playing Al Haly at Chilata awe sure… better pa Levy with civilised fans mwe!!! OPINION!!

  4. I have watched all Nkana games on the copperblet since the beggining of the season, so I can be sturbon for Nkana, yes, but I am not being simplistic. It is not a fluke that we are where we are!!!!

  5. Munthali cost Nkana’s game by giving away a ball infact he shouldn’t have played because he was a Dynamos player and almost concided another goal.

  6. Can someone supply (MCM) Nkana with quality paint to replace that 11 on that BUS
    come saturday 16th November 2013 (infact replace the second One on it only with the number 2 to read 12time league Champions)!

    • Gentlemen !
      What guarantee do u Nkana Fans have that Kampamba automatically be fused into National Team despite coming out as Top scorer ?
      I watchd the game betwn Power & Nkana as Kampamba & Festus provd that they arent ready for National duties…was impressd wth Nkowani, Laurenc & situmbeko…Leonard Chiwasa were are you help..?
