Beston: Blades were better than Nkana

Beston Chambeshi says Nkana were very lucky to beat Konkola Blades on Wednesday.

Blades lost 2-1 to Nkana in a match they dominated but their hosts beat them in the finishing department with two goals while in midfield Misheck Chaila stamped his authority throughout the 90 minutes.

“The boys played good soccer I am happy with the way they are playing it wasn’t an easy game even for Nkana. We gave them a good run,” Chambeshi said.

“I think we gave them a cheap goal in the first half otherwise we put up a good fight.”

Blades defeat came courtesy for two goalkeeping errors by William Chibale.

Ronald Kampamba sent a cheeky chip over an advancing Chibale in the 33rd minute to open scores and hand Nkana a 1-0 halftime lead.

Claude Bwalya then finished off a rebound shot after Chibale parried Evans Kangwa’s shot into the Nkana midfielders path in the 51st minute.

Meanwhile, Blades secured their consolation goal in the 57th minute through striker Elson Mkandawire who beat Nkana goalkeeper Rabson Mchelenganga from close range.

  1. Ama goals do the talkinhg not playing with honour and dignity. The Italians mafios are re-known for their defensive mindedness and that has made them win crucial matches including winnung the World cup 3 times!!!

  2. I would expect a comment like that from the terraces……certainly not from the technical bench.

  3. Ala namakula pali ba Nkana yalekosa. Kalampa is the team to beat so your comment ba Bestone lyashi likaya but 4 us as long as ka 3 points nakatukambata bwa muto pacilata. Nkana 4 life.
