Nyasa Big Bullets took another step towards reclaiming the TNM Super League title as they struggled to beat Mafco FC 1-0 in a match that took place on Sunday at Kamuzu Stadium in Blantyre.
Precious Sambani’s goal was the only difference in the match that saw both sides creating a number of scoring opportunities in both halves.
Sambani scored in the 36th minute with a thunderous strike after receiving a pass from Patrick Mwaungulu.
