Big spending Buildcon have started the 2017 season with a draw after they were held away from home by fellow promotion side Real Nakonde.
All eyes were on Buildcon as soccer fans anxiously waited to see their starting eleven after they had managed to name an all foreign eleven in their last warm up match against TP Mazembe.
However, they had Jonas Sakuwaha in the team that started in Nakonde against a Nakonde side which named a number of faces familiar to the Super division.
This was the only game on match day one that did not produce a goal.
In Lumwana, Lumwana Radiants edged Forest Rangers 1 – 0.
Radiants scored the only goal of the match through Chiyesu Sakafunya.
Forest Rangers wasted a chance to level late in he game when they missed a penalty.

Useless buildcon they wasted money signing rejects. Those foreigner are desperate they failed to play in competetive leagues like .s.a , drc and egypt were their good labour remuneration. These players are refuges in zambia. I feel sorry for this team. They be taught a football lesson. Noone in zambia is going to cheer for these tourist they will be away at home.
