Young Green Eagles-Kansanshi promotion playoff match postponed

Share

Only one of this weekends’ two FAZ Super Division promotion playoff first leg fixtures will proceed as scheduled following an injunction involving one of the matches.

The match involving Young Green Eagles and Kansanshi Dynamos has been postponed.

This is due to Yeta FC’s appealed against the awarding of 3 points to Young Green Eagles after the former used two ineligible players against the latter in their FAZ Zone 4 Week 23 League fixture.

“We received an appeal from Yeta Football Club and have since notified the Appeals Committee to convene and close this matter,” FAZ general secretary Adrian Kashala said.

“We wish to apologize to the clubs involved and the football family for the inconvenience this may have caused. Our desire is to ensure that this matter is concluded amicably.”

But the other playoff first leg match involving Kabwe Youth Soccer Academy and National Assembly FC will go ahead as scheduled on July 6 at Presidents Stadium in Kabwe.

The final leg to decide the two promotion places to the 2019/2020 FAZ Super Division is set for July 13.
