Nkana left it until late to record a critical 2-1 home win over Choma Eagles to move within two points of securing their top flight survival an important 2-1 home win over Choma Eagles in a Faz Super Division Week 24 game at Wusakile Stadium in Kitwe today.
Linos Makwaza’s side is unbeaten in four successive league games and are in 5th place on 34 points needing only two points to stay in the top flight for another session after they were promoted this year.
Meanwhile, in their game against Choma, Nkana took the lead in the 35th minute through an unlikely hero.
A rare first half outing for former midfield protégé Cement Mulenga yielded results when he set the tone for Nkana following his first goal in six years for the record 11-time league champions in the 35th minute.
It is never easy to beat any team coached by Keagan Mumba whose Choma side equalized in the 86th minute but he met his match in Makwaza whose side secured their vital win in the dying minutes of the game through Evans Kangwa.
