BLANTYRE-(MaraviPost)-Supporters from FCB Nyasa Big Bullets disrupted their bus after a heated TNM Super League encounter at Kamuzu Stadium on Sunday.
The tension stemmed from the dramatic nature of the match, in which Bullets surrendered a two goal lead late in the game.
Bullets appeared to be cruising to victory after leading 3-1 by the 77th minute, thanks to goals from Blessings Mpokera, Mike Mkwate, and Babatunde Adepoju.
However, Karonga United staged a remarkable comeback, scoring twice in the closing stages through Benjamin Mapundi, Allen Chihana, and Alfred Chizinga, to force a 3-3 draw.
Speaking after the match, Bullets head coach Peter Mponda admitted his side’s defensive frailties were costly.
He expressed concern over the team’s inability to hold onto leads, especially against resilient opponents like Karonga United.
On the other hand, Karonga United head coach Oscar Kaunda hailed his players’ fighting spirit, praising them for refusing to give up even when the odds seemed stacked against them.
He described the draw as a morale-boosting result for his team.
In another fixture played on the same day, Civil Service United and Mighty Wanderers played out a goalless draw at Civo Stadium in Lilongwe.
The result saw Mighty Wanderers finish the first round at the summit of the league table with 35 points from 15 matches, just one point ahead of second-placed Bullets, who also played 15 games.
