….Week nine MTN/FAZ super league match reports
Forest Rangers 2 – 2 ZESCO United
In a thrilling encounter, Forest Rangers managed to hold ZESCO United to a draw, effectively slowing down their momentum at the top of the league. This match marked a significant moment for Forest Rangers as they secured a well-deserved point against the league leaders. The result leaves ZESCO United still perched at the top, but with a renewed sense of urgency as the competition heats up.
Green Buffaloes 2 – 0 Lumwana Radiants
Green Buffaloes secured a solid victory against Lumwana Radiants, showing their attacking prowess. The home side was in control throughout the match, and this win positions them firmly in the mid-table, adding crucial points to their campaign. Lumwana, on the other hand, will have to regroup quickly as they continue to grapple with relegation fears.
Indeni 1 – 1 NAPSA Stars
Indeni and NAPSA Stars shared the spoils in a match that offered little excitement but plenty of tension. Both teams fought hard but ultimately failed to break the deadlock significantly. This draw keeps both clubs in the mix but does little to alleviate their relegation worries.
Mufulira Wanderers 1 – 3 Nkana
In a crucial clash, Nkana took full advantage of their encounter with Mufulira Wanderers, winning convincingly. This result marks a significant moment for Nkana as they escape the relegation zone, bringing some much-needed relief to their supporters. With Tenant Chilumba at the helm, Mufulira now finds itself in the relegation zone, raising questions about their ability to turn the season around.
MUZA 2 – 0 Atl. Lusaka
MUZA delivered a strong performance at home, dispatching Atl. Lusaka with relative ease. This win demonstrates their determination to climb the league table and solidify their place in the upper echelons of the league standings.
Nchanga Rangers 1 – 2 Green Eagles
In a tightly contested match, Green Eagles managed to secure victory over Nchanga Rangers. This win could be pivotal for Eagles as they continue their push for mid-table safety, while Nchanga’s inconsistency persists.
Red Arrows 1 – 0 Nkwazi
Red Arrows managed to find a narrow victory against Nkwazi, who struggled to capitalize on their chances. This win is crucial for Arrows as they aim to solidify their place in the top half of the table.
Zanaco 1 – 1 Mutondo Stars
In a frustrating match for Zanaco, who are still struggling to find their rhythm, they managed to scrape a draw against a confident Mutondo Stars. With only one win in nine games, Zanaco is feeling the pressure, and this result will do little to placate their fans who are eagerly demanding improvement.
Conclusion
I repeat, ZANACO still have one win in nine games and ZESCO United drop two points while Red Arrows craw into fourth with a game in hand.
