Nkana down Mighty

Nkana on Sunday edged visiting Mufulira Wanderers 2-1 at Nkana Stadium in the battle of the two Super Division legends.

Nkana went up just after four minutes when winger Shadrick Musonda converted from the penalty spot.

Referee Wisdom Chewe awarded Nkana a spot kick after keeper Chrispin Chisowa fouled Danny Silavwe in the box.

Wanderers missed a chance to equalise when striker Rahm Osumanu wasted two opportunities in quick succession.

Firstly, Osumanu forced a save from keeper Moses Mapulanga in the 28th minute before sending a powerful shot over after in a one-one situation three minutes later.

Nkana started the second half on a faster note with Ronald Kampamba directing his 47th minute weak shot at Chisowa.

Kampamba four minutes later set up substitute Simon Bwalya for Nkana’s second goal to excite the home crowd.

Bwalya had replaced Bornwell Mwape two minutes before scoring.

Nkana were seemingly heading for a 2-0 win before Mighty forward Osumanu pulled one back a minute away from the full time.
