Share

Red Arrows recovery continued on Saturday when they beat hosts Buildcon to collect their second straight league win.

Arrows beat Buildcon 2-1 at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola to hand the early season pacesetters their third straight defeat of the season.

Francis Simwanza struck a left-footed shot in the 20th minute to put Arrows ahead.

But four minutes later, Chipolopolo striker Brian Mwila headed-in the equalizer off a Shadreck Musonda cross in his first match back after three quiet seasons in Europe.

However, veteran striker James Chamanga refused to be eclipsed and struck in the 33rd minute when he powered he was way through two Buildcon defenders before beating goalkeeper Benson Mwale.

Arrows are ninth on 15 points, just three points behind fourth placed Buildcon from 10 and 12 games played respectively.

In Lumwana, Lumwana Radiants won their first game under new coach Tenant Chembo after losing his first three matches when they beat Green Buffaloes 1-0 via Felix Nyaende goal.

In Kafue, visitors Indeni snatched a late point to finish 1-1 away against fellow promoted side Young Green Eagles.

The two sides went into the break scoreless before Young Green Eagles put the hosts from spot in the 68th minute through Andrew Phiri.

Moses Phiri then stole a last gasp point for Indeni with an 89th minute equalizer.
