The big game of the day saw defending Champions, ZESCO makes a short trip to Kitwe to face off with record 13-time Champions, Nkana in a titanic clash.
Nkana took the lead in the 19th minute as Jacob Ngulube header past national team goalkeeper, Gregory Sanjase to put the hosts in the lead. Nkana was denied a clear penalty after Clement Mwape brought down Alex Ng’onga in the box but the referee waved off Nkana’s calls for a penalty.
