Super League leaders Red Arrows have emerged from the weekend action with a four-point gap at the top of the table.
After thumping Napsa Stars 2-0 at home in Lusaka on Sunday, Arrows extended their tally to 39 points, four ahead of second placed Power Dynamos, who have two unplayed games,
Airmen forward Albert Kangwanda was the hero of the match, scoring twice at Nkoloma Stadium.
Kangwanda registered second half goals in the 55th and 90th minutes respectively.
Kangwanda’s heroics in front handed Arrows their first win in three matches at the back of two straight draws.
Arrows coach Chisi Mbewe said the win will motivate the League leaders going to future assignments against title rivals Power Dynamos and Zesco United.
“We are happy the way we performed this afternoon. This was our game plan. I think in the past two games we have not been doing well, we have been missing chances. So, we wanted to double our efforts to get the points,” Mbewe said.
“It is a motivating result for us, going into other games ahead of us. We have got Power Dynamos, Nchanga Rangers and Zesco United,” he said.
Meanwhile, this result has left Napsa just one place above relegation as they remain winless in their last four matches.
“It is a disappointing result. Of course, looking at where we are in the league we can’t afford to continue losing matches,” said Napsa interim coach Tenant Chilumba.
