Zanaco wounds Buffaloes to go top

By Mary Mukuka
Zanaco have shot to the top of the FAZ Super Division table after thrashing Lusaka rivals Green Buffaloes 3-0 in the local derby played at Sunset Stadium on Friday.

An own goal by Buffaloes defender Gideon Sichone put Zanaco in the lead just four minutes into this Week 14 match.

Captain Roger Kola extended the lead a minute away from the half time break before Siankombo sealed the scoring with a 78th minute goal.

The Bankers lead the table with 24 points, one above second placed Prison Leopards, who will be in action on Saturday against Lumwana Radiants in Solwezi.

Buffaloes remain stuck fourth from the foot of the table with 13 points from 14 matches played.
