Nkana have jumped two places to third position after a 2-0 away win over old foes Kabwe Warriors on Sunday at Godfrey ‘Ucar’ Chitalu Stadium in Kabwe.
The record 12-time champions’ win was their fourth successive league victory and are now unbeaten in their last five matches since Zesco beat them 1-0 in Kitwe on April 8.
Sunday’s result also ended Warriors eight-match unbeaten run dating back to March 25 when they drew 1-1 in Kabwe against Red Arrows before picking five wins and three draws that had seen the Railwaymen flirt with second place heading in Week 10.
Ex-Warriors striker Idris Mbombo punished his former team with a brace in the 51wst and 59th minutes.
Nkana have 19 points, three behind leaders Zesco United and two adrift of second placed Green Buffaloes.

wish Chisamba had stayed as defender as Rene showed him, today he could have been playing like Victor Moses or Ashley Young the former strikers now best right backs.
