Green Buffaloes are the new leaders following Week 12 games played in the Faz Premier League this weekend after a 2-0 away win over Nkana at Wusakile Stadium in Kitwe this afternoon.
Buffaloes chart-topping win came thanks to Roan United’s beating former leaders Young Arrows 2-1 at Kafubu Stadium in Lunashya today.
Goals from Zambia internationals Reuben Tembo and Sebastian Mwansa handed Buffaloes the 3 points to lead on 22 points, one more than Kabwe Warriors who replaced them in 2nd place after their 1-0 away win over local rivals Green Eagles today.
Warriors won the first-ever Kabwe Premier League derby between the two teams thanks to a 2nd half goal from Zambia striker Emmanuel Mayuka.
Young Arrows, who were one of two top-8 teams not to win today, slip to 3rd place on 20 points after their loss to Roan.
They were other top-8 wins for Zanaco who beat Nkwazi 2-0 and Power who also won by the same margin away to Chambishi in an erratic performance by both teams.
Power opened scores through striker Francis Kombe in the 20th minute after he raced past Chambishi defender Bright Chileshe before unleashing a trademark shot past Paul Nyirongo.
Lameck Mwale tapped in Power’s second after side-footing in a Simon Bwalya cross from the left wing in the 53rd minute to see Chambishi remain riveted to the bottom of the table.
City of Lusaka recorded a shock win over defending league champions Zesco United who dropped from 3rd to 6th after losing 1-0 away at Woodlands Stadium.
The hosts winning goal came in the opening 15 minutes of the match from striker Derrick Kabwe.
Elsewhere, Nchanga Rangers rallied against Lusaka Dynamos to beat the latter 2-1 thanks to goals from Mathews Macha and Elijah Tana after Hichani Himoonde had given the visitors the lead.

Swaziland 0 Togo 0.Half time score.
Swaziland 1 Togo 0,77minutes gone. Swaziland are doing the ‘business’! results FIFA.Com
Thanx sibs pliz kip us posted
Its over Swazis 2 Togo 0.90minutes gone.It looks like our group is wide open.
according to FIFA.Com its 2-1 in favour swaziland
#23 You right the game finished 2-1.Togo pulled a goal at the last minute.
Thanks Swaziland and now the ball is in our court.All we have to do is beat Swaziland in their backyard and it will be advantage Zambia and no more needing any calculators.
The ball is now in Chipolopolo’s hands. We have been given a life line and need to take matters really serious. We have to win the next two games – yes, even in Swaziland, for us to stand any chance. That way, we will top the group before meeting Togo, which will leave us needing a draw against Togo and win the group. It calls for serious preparations and I was hoping this weekend we had a friendly game against a country that was not playing.
#26 Magogofacts good point that we needed a friendly game before facing Swazi but as you know we always have poor preparations for big games like Swazi. Faz is weak when it comes to organize friendlies. Go Zambia, just go and play hard, they should treat this game as if it their last game, they should leave everything on the field for this game.
#26 and #27, you both make a good point about a friendly. Only problem is I believe every team except for a few exceptions were in action this weekend. The coach wanted to use this weekend to watch the local leagues to scout for more talent which is not a bad thing. I know, nothing can beat a real game, but at least some positive steps are being taken. If only these players who are not in camp would show up when they are supposed to we’d be in better shape. Discipline seems to be a problem that needs to corrected with more than just Mbesuma.
Times have changed indeed. Amasoja surely coming to clobber us pachilata! Kapambwe Mulenga and his luminaries are surely turning in their graves!
