Mighty Mufulira Wanderers home game against Zesco United was abandoned on at Shinde Stadium in Mufulira while Nkana extended their unbeaten run to five games today.
Tensions were high as Mighty went into the match unbeaten at Shinde this season where they have picked up five wins and two draws since ending their 10 year absence from the Faz Super Division this year.
Moreover, Zesco came into the match armed with a psychological edge over Mighty whom they beat 4-1 in the first leg last April in Ndola to confine the nine-tome champions to their worst league defeat in 2015.
A disputed 31st minute goal by Winston Kalengo from a Cletus Chota cross angered the Mighty bench who alleged an infringement before the ball went in.
Referee Gladys Lengwe then halted the match for 10 minutes before decided to call off proceedings.
Meanwhile, there was something to cheer about for the suffering Nkana fans after their beloved 12-time champions beat second from bottom National Assembly 3-1 in Kitwe.
New boys Fred Tshemanga, Walter Bwalya and Diego Apanane were on target in the 5th, 50th and 67th minutes respectively to hand Nkana its first home win since beating green Buffaloes 2-0 on May 30.
Tshite Mweshi scored Assembly’s consolation goal in the 12th minute.
And the win sees Nkana unbeaten since returning from the three-week,mid-season break o July 18 in which they started with three straight draws before two consecutive FAZ Super Division victories.

This woman why abandon the game? She should be charged by FAZ This is so far the only abandoned game this season. The referee is to blame. She was bought by ZESCO
She learned from FIFA world cup. She did a good job before a fight erupted.
She did well, Ba Mwana shimaini bafyongo sana !! Better still they could have lost the points if the game would have continued coz ngatabalekele ifinfulunganya twalibeshiba lumolwine na ku chilata…!
