Nkana produced a stunning performance at home to beat Mighty Mufulira Wanderers 3-0 in a riveting Copperbelt derby at Nkana Stadium in Kitwe graced by President Edger Lungu.
A stunning hat trick from Fred Tshimenga handed Nkana their first league win after a three-match winless run in which they picked up two defeats including a 0-0 away draw at Nakambala Leopards last Wednesday.
Tshimenga put Nkana ahead in the 15th minute when his shot came off the post before beating Noah Mwanza.
The striker headed-in his second in the 49th minutes before coolly tapping-in from close-range his third in the 61st minute.
Nkana’s victory was sweet revenge over Mighty after losing 2-0 in the first leg at Shinde on June 20.
Nkana are 8th on 38 points, seven behind 5th placed Mighty with one match left to play in the 2015 season.

Comment: coglats nkana next season the league is ours
To me, the Zesco Vs ZANACO result looks suspicious. A question of money exchanging hands, perhaps?
Am Malaiti but this was fantastic
Mwalitumpa sana imwe baiche bakwa Milambo. How can you lose like this? Chabinga arent you ashamed to be coaching a team that loses 3-0? Limbi mwaliumfwana naba Nkana to save them from relegation? Foolish!
