WEEKEND SCORECARD:Injuries ravage Power Dynamos

Share

Power Dynamos will limp into the second half of the 2018 season with a growing casualty list to their already thin squad.

Goalkeeper Joshua Titima has become Power’s third high-profile player on the sidelines after suffering a knee injury in Sunday’s 1-0 away win over second placed Green Buffaloes at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka.

Power CEO Happie Munkondya said Titima maybe out of action for over a month.

“It is a big blow because he has been outstanding and has made a very, very big impact for us this season,” Munkondya said.

Titima has been Power’s first- choice since he displaced Allan Chibwe to the bench in Week 2 in a 1-0 away win over National Assembly after the latter had relegated him to the bench in the 2016 and 2017 season.

But Chibwe too is out with a long-term injury and he was joined last week on the sidelines by defender Billy Mutale after he was stretchered off in a 2-2 home draw against Forest Rangers on June 13 at Arthur Davies Stadium in Kitwe.

However, Power still have goalkeeping options with Lawrence Mulenga, who replaced Titima on Sunday, and Peter Njobvu in the race for the number one shirt in Sunday’s 12h30 Copperbelt derby kickoff against upstarts Buildcon at Arthur Davies.
