Alex ‘Bazo’ Ng’onga scored the only goal of the game as Nkana edged log leaders Zesco United 1-0 to end their 10 match unbeaten run.
The match was characterized by a lot of missed chances, John Mark Makwatta could have sealed the result in the first few minutes but failed to beat Malunga in goal for Nkana.

Where is perry mutapa? Are you counting alex’s goals. You can never be a good coach if you fight players.
I think Perry should learn from this,being a good coach involves taking your players like your own children not fighting and attacking them but adjusting them no wonder M umamba is doing fine.
I think Perry has the same trend as the national level with Chipolopolo. Mucho needs someone with a good understanding of players as Perry has challenges in that area
Micho will never go anywhere with chipolopolo. He doesnt good relationship with players. Kabaso he is a very good player but he will perform well. He knows the coach doesnt like him. Micho has psychological problem he behaves like a grade one pupil
Bazo is an excellent player. All he needs is a good coach who relates well with players. It’s a pity the league is coming to an end; he would have scored more goals.
King bazo fever…
@ Tony Mash . Kabaso Chongo if his not in good books with the Coach , he must put the differences aside and play the good soccer he knows . When your boss is expressing inappropriate attitude towards you , it’s prudent to produce sufficiently and effectively work . We call this leadership maturity.
