First half goals by Stephen Kabamba and Christopher Katongo handed Buffaloes their debut Barclays Cup triumph.

Kabamba headed-in the first goal in th 21st minute off a Sebastian Mwansa corner.

Katongo completed the scoring in the 34th minute from the penalty spot after Jasper Masialeti was brought down in the box by Nkwazi goalkeeper Makasa Kalaba.

  1. Learn 2 update the engravings on the tropthy.It is still indicating 2013 Winners Red Arrows FC and yet this is 2015.

    • @Ndobo, Kekekekeke C.Lungu’s team won, he is the commander of soldiers. If there is no one praising you, you better just take yourself to the free medal awards. The end of the days are here for the PF.

    • Just bring Chris Katongo back as Chipolopolo captain. What more proof do you need that he is the best or one of the best? Forgive the guy and use his skills. We want to win all games not just some.

  2. And there is our Lazy Lungu with his newly developed pot belly as if he hasnt got alot in his in-tray…work ethic is a big problem in Zambia….expect to see more of Lungu being invited by Galu as the FAZ AGM approaches and scandals increase. Its a classic Galu tactic to avoid since his chief protector Blatter is no more!!

  3. who ever has told lungu that being seen at football matches is a way to increases his votes is a failure. Wat time does this man have to attend to serious economy pblms. We wont eat social life.

    • Mary Tembi – Neither are you going to eat Lungu, sha! Pick up a hoe – the rains are round the corner. Who said Lungu is supposed to put food on your plate? The opposition has confused you to think that your laziness is the governments fault.

  4. @ mary tembi,If hh the child of the devil, is not a people person,pls leave my President alone, beside he is the chief in charge of the army,go with your hh where you do occult things drinking blood.(Freemasonry)

  5. One or two illiots have posted comments. Please I am directed that only comments to do with the story should be on the blog shaa

  6. This was a win-win situation for lungu. Even if it were Nkwazi FC who won he would still have celebrated with them, the Police side, after all he is also the Commander of the police.

    Lungu is a genius; he knows how to win something everyday. But 2016…..I am afraid.

  7.
