Updated: Zanaco Beat Zesco in “Zed” Derby

Zanaco came from behind to beat their rivals Zesco United in the “Zed” derby this afternoon at Sunset Stadium in Lusaka to move into second place.

Zanaco beat Zesco 2-1 in their rescheduled Week 2 game to move from 5th to the number 2 spot displacing Red Arrows.

Zesco took the lead in the 45th minute through midfielder Arthur Kasoloki to give the defending Faz Super Division champions 1-0 lead into the break.

However, Zanaco equalized four minutes before the hour-mark through defender Mwelwa Sakala.

Striker Moses Phiri scored his fourth goal of the season to seal the three points in the 63rd minute.

Zanaco are now on 15 points, four points less than leaders Nakambala Leopards, ahead of their Week 9 game against Konkola Blades at the same venue this Saturday.
