MTN Super League Week 24: Fresh Results and Updated Standings
Week 24 of the MTN Super League delivered its share of gritty performances and nail-biting finishes. Every match this round had a ripple effect on the league table, reshaping ambitions at the top and deepening concerns at the bottom. Here’s an in-depth look at the week’s results and how they stack up in the current standings.
ZESCO United 1-0 Red Arrows
A razor-thin win came courtesy of Pasco Phiri’s 54th-minute strike. This victory propelled ZESCO United to the summit with 49 points. The narrow margin speaks volumes about their ability to grind out wins even when chances are few. For Red Arrows, who remain on 38 points and now sit in 6th place, the loss is a setback that they’ll need to rectify if they hope to close the gap at the top.
Kabwe Warriors 1-0 Zanaco
In a tense fixture at Railway Stadium, Kabwe Warriors found the winner late on when Simon Tonga struck in the 73rd minute. This hard-fought victory nudged Kabwe Warriors to 47 points, keeping them firmly in 2nd place and within striking distance of ZESCO United. Zanaco, however, continue to languish near the bottom, now at 21 points and fighting for every point to escape relegation.
Power Dynamos 2-0 Atlético Lusaka
Power Dynamos showcased their strength with a commanding 2-0 win over Atlético Lusaka. Goals from Brian Masanyinga and Titus Chansa (scoring in the 37th and 72nd minutes, respectively) ensured Dynamos climbed to 45 points, solidifying their position in 3rd place. Atlético Lusaka, now at 23 points in 15th place, find themselves edging closer to the relegation battle.
Nkana 1-0 Green Eagles
In a match defined by defensive grit, Nkana clinched a 1-0 win over a struggling Green Eagles side. Clement Mwape’s goal just before halftime was enough to secure the win, taking Nkana to 41 points and into 4th place. Green Eagles, who have now fallen to 31 points and 10th place, continue to suffer from a persistent lack of firepower up front.
Nkwazi 2-1 Nchanga Rangers
A thrilling encounter saw Nkwazi edge past Nchanga Rangers 2-1. This victory lifted Nkwazi to 38 points and into 5th place, on par with Red Arrows but ahead on goal difference. For Nchanga Rangers, now at 25 points in 14th place, the loss deepens their relegation woes and puts additional pressure on them to find form.
FC MUZA 1-1 Green Buffaloes
A tightly contested battle between FC MUZA and Green Buffaloes ended in a 1-1 draw. Bornwell Mwape’s 62nd-minute goal for MUZA was met with a late equalizer from Green Buffaloes. The result leaves FC MUZA with 32 points (9th place) and Green Buffaloes with 34 points (7th place). Both sides will feel they could have snatched all three points and will be keen to improve their consistency.
Mufulira Wanderers 1-2 Napsa Stars
Napsa Stars produced an important away win against Mufulira Wanderers, recording a 2-1 victory. Although the scorers remain unconfirmed, this result nudges Napsa Stars to 30 points (11th place) and leaves Mufulira Wanderers at 33 points (8th place). The win is a vital boost for Napsa as they cling to mid-table safety, while Mufulira will be disappointed not to convert their home advantage.
Lumwana Radiants 1-1 Forest Rangers
In a dramatic finish, Lumwana Radiants managed a stoppage-time equalizer to rescue a 1-1 draw against Forest Rangers. Forest Rangers’ Tiki Chiluba had put them ahead in the 59th minute, but Benjamin Mukanda’s late strike leveled the score. This draw leaves Lumwana Radiants with 27 points (13th place) and Forest Rangers with 22 points (16th place), as both teams continue their uphill battle to avoid relegation.
Mutondo Stars 1-0 Indeni
A solitary goal proved enough for Mutondo Stars to overcome Indeni in a critical match. This win lifts Mutondo Stars to 29 points (12th place) and further consigns Indeni to the bottom of the table, where they remain at a mere 10 points (18th place). For Indeni, every point is now a lifeline in the fight against relegation.
