BLANTYRE-(MaraviPost)—Silver Strikers has opened a six-point gap at the top of the TNM Super league after a 2-1 victory over Chitipa United on Sunday afternoon at Silver Stadium in Lilongwe.
Duncan Nyoni and Patrick Macheso scored for the Bankers while Chitipa got its consolation goal through former Mighty Be Forward Wanderers’ striker Khumbo Ng’ambi.
The result has seen Silver basking at the top with 31 points followed by the defending champions Nyasa Big Bullets with 25 points. However, Bullets have a game in hand which is a clear signal of tight race.
In another game, Blue Eagles force a 1-all draw against the Salima based soldiers, Mafco FC. Mphatso Philimon and Zikani Sichinga were the scorers.
Civil Service and Mafco are on position three and four respectively while Ekwendeni Hammers finish the top five.
