Odhiambo sends Zesco United fourth

Champions Zesco United have gone fourth on the log after a slender 1 – 0 win over town rivals Forest Rangers.

It was sweet revenge for the George Lwandamina coached side after they were beaten 1 – 0 by the same opposition in the reverse fixture.

Kenyan international David Odhiambo led from the back as he scored the lone goal of the game when he headed home a Clatous Chama pass.

The win takes Zesco to 4th position on 40 points, one better than 5th placed Green Buffaloes.

Forest on the other hand remain stuck in 11th position.

Zesco’s next fixture is against bottom placed Mufulira Blackpool while Forest play Nkwazi.
