Napsa Stars’ lead at the top of the FAZ National Division 1 table has been reduced to a point following their shocking loss to Gomes at the weekend.
Gomes stunned Napsa 1-0 at Woodlands Stadium in Lusaka via a second half goal scored by striker Wilson Chisala.
The loss left Napsa on 32 points, one ahead of second placed Lumwana Radiants, who have a game in hand against Kitwe United.
‘’It’s a sad result but I think sometimes in Football, such results will give you a wakeup call,” Napsa coach Perry Mutapa reacted to the loss.
Gomes are number 12 on the table with 19 points after playing 17 matches.
Meanwhile, Lumwana moved back into second place after beating Luapula Green Eagles 1-0 at home in the North Western Province.
Kapambwe Musonda’s 72nd goal handed Lumwana victory.
Up next for Lumwana is the rescheduled home match against Kitwe to be played on December 23 in Lumwana.
