Silver Strikers want to slash deficit

TNM Super League defending champions Silver Strikers are looking forward to slashing their negative points’ tally to two points when they host Kamuzu Barracks (KB) today (Wednesday) at Silver Stadium.

Silver started the season with negative nine points for the sins they, alongside Mighty Wanderers who docked six points, committed in perpetrating violence at Balaka Stadium on December 28 2013.

But despite being denied a head start, Silver general secretary Mike Tembo yesterday vowed to win all their games, including against KB.

“Of course this is a crucial game because we are still in the negative and we want to come out to the positive points. KB haven’t made an impressive showing, so we will be out to do our best,” said Tembo yesterday.

Silver have made a flying start to the campaign, beating Wanderers 2-0 with Rodrick Gonani as the scorer-in-chief. But the same cannot be said of KB who would equally be aiming at making a huge impression for the season.

Gonani will be expected to lead the front line that has many attacking options offered by Green Harawa and Chawanangwa Kaonga.

KB will be without inspirational attacker Harvey Nkacha who offers penetrative verve in the attacking third.

“I’m injured but the rest of the guys are geared for the game,” said Nkacha.

  1. I am one of the football fun who follows sports through this platform. My serious worry is about failure by managers of this platform to give us readers up-to-date information. A case in point is the leagues standings posted below. For example, the Standings are showing that Silver Strikers are on Number 4 with 7 points WHEN we know pretty well that by yesterday 7th May, SS are sliver in negative zone with -2 (minutes two points), while Wanderers are on position 7 with 6 points when they have played only 3 games losing one and winning two. How come are they on Position 7? Please try your best to always be on top of things and think outside the box. You must know that these platforms are accessed world wise and you can not afford to give readers wrong information like you are currently doing. It is my hope therefore that you are going to rectify these anomalies and that you will not repeat this mess.
