Kitwe United not underdogs

Dear Editor,

On the other hand it’s good Zanaco maintained its unbeaten run in the 2019 MTN/FAZ transitional Super League after overcoming the Kitwe outfit at Sunset Stadium in Lusaka.

Kitwe United cannot be rated underdogs, they have all what it takes.

opportunity in as early as the fourth minute when Rodger Kola put Zanaco in the lead after beating the Kitwe United goal keeper Lameck Siame after benefiting from Chitiya Mususu’s cross.

One could see that Zanaco’s running power in attack nearly brought them a second goal in the sixth minute but were unfortunate when Situmbeko found speedy winger Ernest Mbewe whose shot on target was saved by the goal keeper.

Kitwe United cannot be rated underdogs, they have what it takes.
