Nkana this afternoon lost in a friendly match against DR Congo giants TP Mazembe.
The international club friendly was played at Nkana Stadium in Kitwe as part of Mazembe’s two- week long training camp in Ndola that began on September 2.
And it was Nkana who took the lead in the 32nd minute through Simon Bwalya.
But Mazembe ensured they went into the break 1-1 when Ibrahim Mingolo equalized ten minutes later before Michel Mika gave Mazembe the win on the hour mark.
Mazembe were using the friendly to prepare for their 2018 CAF Champions League quarterfinal two-legged dates against Primeiro de Agosto of Angola on September 14 away in Luanda and 21 at home in Lubumbashi.
Agosto are familiar to Zambia after they drew away in Ndola and beat Zesco United at home in Luanda in the group stages.
Nkana on the other hand used the friendly to warm- up for their Sunday Kitwe derby clash against Kitwe United away at Garden Park.
Reporting yabupuba. Even me who isn’t a journalist knows that a match report has to have the scoreline. It’s the most important thing in a game and there you go telling us Nkana lost. Nkana lost by how many goals!?. Ati kupusa
Kikikikiki….but zoona ndiwe Fwalungula for sure.Koma ndiwe opusa like you have stated in your comment.Who taught you English who didnt mention that you can get the meaning from a sentence.I know Lusaka times makes a lot of mistakes at times.But from the story you have this below:
(And it was Nkana who took the lead in the 32nd minute through Simon Bwalya.
But Mazembe ensured they went into the break 1-1 when Ibrahim Mingolo equalized ten minutes later before Michel Mika gave Mazembe the win on the hour mark.)
So the equaliser came in 42nd minute which was 10 minutes after 32nd minute since you can read English and only want to be given on silver plate the numbers.
Where it says in the story that (before Michel Mika gave Mazembe the win on the hour mark) it means that the winning…
Landafye ati taumfwecisungu, mazembe won by 2-1 ngaine naishibashani from the same story. Half time it was 1-1 and michel mika gave mazembe the win at the hour mark eyo taumfwile. Go back to school and not black mountain.
These reports are “bakutola!”
it means the winning goal came on 60th minute which was hour mark. Dont show your ignorance on things you dont even understand by opening your chikamwa wide mambala. kupusa bati.
