Green Buffaloes have opened the 2016 FAZ Division campaign with a 1-0 win over Green Eagles away in Choma.

  1. Traditionally Ndola teams have been a thorn in the flesh for Mighty so it is not a bad start. Let us have a win in the next game which will be at Shinde.

  2. The lack of high scores in our league is a source of worry. It explains why we are struggling at national level to have cracking forwards.
