Barbra Banda on target in Orlando Pride narrow win 

Published

28 Views

Copper Queens skipper Barbra Banda scored the only goal of the game as Orlando Pride edged Seattle Reign 1-0 to maintain their 100 percent start to the season. 
Banda reacted fastest to a Summer Yates cross into the box to poke home from close range.
Banda came close twice more, first forcing a save from Claudia Dickey and then hitting the crossbar after combining well with country mate Prisca Chilufya who came on to replace Marta in the 61st minute. 
The win takes Orlando Pride to 12 points as they remain top of the NWSL log table with a 100 percent winning record. 
Barbra Banda on the other hand has now been involved in 4 goals so far this season (3 goals and 1 assist). 
Babra Banda holds the key to Zambian victories. Whenever we loose a game when she is absent, we remain hopeful for we believe that when she will be present in the next match she will change the story and make us proud again.

ZPL refers derby, Kabwe Warriors v NAPSA incidents to Disciplinary Committee, FAZ hint on harsh punishment as Nkana offer to replace damaged seats

The Zambian Premier League (ZPL) has referred the two incidents that happened during week 32 of the MTN Super League to the FAZ Disciplinary Committee. 
ZPL has urged the clubs to take greater responsibility in managing their players, officials and  supporters and enhancing matchday security. 
Kabwe Warriors players confronted the first assistant after their goal was ruled out for offside and looked to have gotten physical in their approach in the video that’s circulating online. 
Meanwhile, suspected Nkana fans uprooted over 500 seats at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium as chaos erupted after a penalty was awarded to Power Dynamos after a foul on Prince Mumba in the Kitwe derby
“The Zambian Premier League (ZPL) has taken note of the incidents that occurred during the Week 32 fixtures between NAPSA Stars and Kabwe Warriors at REIZ Arena, and Nkana vs Power Dynamos at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium.
In line with set guidelines the matters shall be referred to the FAZ Disciplinary Committee for due determination of the cases. 
We urge all clubs to take greater responsibility in managing their players, officials and  supporters and enhancing matchday security. The ZPL remains committed to fostering a safe, respectful, and enjoyable environment for all. 
Football should be a family-friendly experience where fans of all ages feel safe and welcome. Acts of violence not only disrupt this atmosphere but also undermine the spirit of the game.”
The Statement went on; Likewise all fans are also urged to respect the game, support their teams peacefully, and report any misconduct to the appropriate authorities.”
The Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) on the other hand has hinted on harsh punishment for the perpetrators of the chaos at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium that caused damage to the stadium. 
“We sign off on a disturbing note following ugly scenes at the Levy Mwanawasa Stadium where some hooligans masquerading as fans ripped off seats in protest of a penalty given to Power Dynamos against Nkana. The match ended 1-1. With the game being the most popular and biggest advert of our league, there could not have been a worse portrayal of our football. We are barely hanging on to one FIFA approved stadium and cannot afford such levels of barbarism. While it is too early to provide a conclusive picture of what measures will be taken, I can definitely confirm that this behaviour will be heavily punished.”
Meanwhile Nkana Football Club whose fans have been figured as the major culprit in Sunday’s chaos has offered to replace the seats damaged during the derby. 
 “While we may not agree with the referee’s decision, we respect the game and the spirit of sportsmanship. We deeply regret the actions of some individuals that led to the damage of property. As a club, we stand for integrity and respect, and we are committed to making amends,” Club President, Eng. Joseph Silwimba said. 
“We would like to offer our sincere apologies to the stadium management and we will take steps to replace the damaged seats.”
