Buffaloes, Power in Charity Shield final

Joshua Titima atoned for his error when he saved two penalties to hand Power Dynamos a Charity Shield final berth against Green Buffaloes at the expense of Zesco United.

Idriss Mbombo continued with his perfect start to his career at Zesco United when he netted his third goal in the last three games for Zesco in the second half after he squeezed in a short at Titima’s near post which the goalie should have saved.

But Power came back into the game through Conlyde Luchanga when he blasted in from inside the area to give the Kitwe side a lifeline late in the second half against the run of play to send the game to penalties.

Zesco had the better chances in the game with Titima saving perfectly with his foot stuck some one on one chances from Mbombo and substitute John Chingandu in the second half.

In the shootout, Mbombo and Misheck Chaila who was outstanding in midfield for Zesco missed their spot kicks while Larry Bwalya had his penalty placed off target.

In the earlier kickoff, a solid defensive display by Green Buffaloes saw them through to the finals thanks to an Adrian Chama first half goal.

This year’s Charity Shield has seen both teams representing Zambia in Africa lose.

The final will be played on 9th March.
