Nkana Enter Top 8

Nkana beat Green Eagles 2-1 in Sunday’s Faz Super Division Week 24 match at Kitwe’s Arthur Davies Stadium to move into 8th place on goal difference.

Striker Evans Kangwa scored a stunning free kick in the 38 minutes after Nkana speed winger Phlegon Kaunda was brought down outside the box.

Six minutes later, ex-international midfielder Kebby Hachipuka headed in an expertly executed Aubrey Zulu free kick just outside the box for an equaliser.

Hachipuka’s celebration was cut short after he was hit by a bottle of water thrown by a suspected Nkana fan.

After the interval, the game seemed to be heading for a draw before teenager sensational Reynold “Sate Sate” Kampamba inked the winning goal for Nkana in the 76th minute from a long range effort.

Ten minutes later, Kaunda had a chance to increase Nkana’s lead but directed his low shot into the legs of advancing Eagles keeper Satchmo Chakawa.

Other Super Division games were suspended due to Saturday’s Barclays Cup action.
