Nyasa Big Bullets hopes of defending the super league title suffered a major blow as they were held 1-1 by the Salima based soldiers Mafco FC at Kamuzu Stadium in Blantyre.
The People’s team went into the game three points ahead of second placed Silver Strikers with a game in hand but the draw means the gap has been reduced to a point after the Central Bankers thrashed Ntopwa FC 3-0 at Silver Stadium in Lilongwe.
Mafco’s Stain Malata opened the score sheet 9 minutes into the game but Bullets equalised at 35th minutes through Babatunde Adepoju who scored after receiving a cross from Hassan Kajoke.
With Wednesday’s result, Bullets remain top with 56 points from 27 games, a point behind Silver Strikers but the people’s team have a game in hand.
Bullets are expected to play Be Forward Wanderers FC on Sunday at Kamuzu Stadium.
