Mighty Mukuru Wanderers came from behind to grab three points in the ongoing TNM Super League, beating Red Lions 2-1 at Kamuzu Stadium on Sunday

The Nomads succumbed to the pace and pressure from the Zomba-based soldiers in the 56th minute when Andrew Biyo gave his team the much-deserved lead.

Wanderers quickly responded through former Nyasa Big Bullets striker Chiukepo Msowoya who equalised just three minutes after the Lions’ goal.



Another former Bullets player, Muhammad Sulumba scored the winner for the Lali Lubani boys as he headed-in a Stanley Sanudi corner in the 62nd minute.

Elsewhere, Karonga United were 2-1 home winners against TN Stars in a match that was played at Karonga Stadium.

The home side scored through Ramadan Mtafu and Josiah Duwa while Alexander Cosmas pulled one back for the visitors.

The central bankers pulled on back through Stain Davie just a minute before the end of the match after a defensive lapse on the part of the home side.

In another match played on Saturday Mafco FC thrashed Rumphi United 3-nil at Chitowe Stadium.

The Salima-based soldiers relied on Dan Chimbalanga’s goal and Peter Kasonga’ brace to secure maximum points and move to from position 8 to sixth position on the log table.

Blue Eagles and Kamuzu Barracks played out to a goalless draw in a match that was played at Nankhaka Stadium in Lilongwe.

Babatunde Adepoju is now the leading scorer in the league after scoring seven goals followed by Silver Striker’s Stain Davie and Trouble Kajani of Rumphi United who have so far scored six goals each.
