LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)— Crowd pullers Nyasa Big Bullets made a miserable start in the Airtel top 8 when they conceded a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Lliongwe City giants Silver Strikers at Bingu National Stadium on Saturday.
Bullets were a marvel to watch throughout the game missed a lot of scoring opportunities and their striking force was just blunt, a clear message that talisman Chiukepo Msowoya who is now plying his trade in South Africa left a big gap.
Despite playing second fiddle to Bullets, the Bankers scored in the 87th minute through Victor Limbani who successfully took a rebound after Mike Fodya’s well taken free kick hit the upright post.
The win has given Silver and advantage ahead of second leg which will take place in Blantyre.
