When we say these are tuTemba journalists, this is what we mean. You talk about Kalaba and other players’ performances in the game, BUT you never mention the final score. All you say is the return match is on 6 November.
Naine napapa sana.
Tuli bengi abadabilwe. I was really looking forward to additional achievements, alas I was asking for too much
This is real crazy reporting. I scrolled down for results but non. In the mean time the heading says Weekend Score Card!!!!
BBC Football
TP Mazembe of the Democratic Republic of Congo took a big step towards winning the African Confederation Cup after drawing 1-1 at Mouloudia Bejaia of Algeria in the first leg of the final on Saturday.
Look at the second paragraph:
“Kalaba, who has been Zambia captain since January, 2015, led DR Congo giants TP Mazembe out on Saturday night in their 2016 CAF Confederation Cup final, first leg, away match away to MO Bejaia of Algeria in Blida that ended 1-1”
The game ended 1-1. It is mentioned in the article.
You are a Tu temba reader youself who cant see the 1-1 in the paragraph.
