A First half goal from Francisco Madinga helped Mighty Mukuru Wanderers to win the 2024 Kamuzu Cup as they beat capital city giants Silver Strikers 1-0 at Kamuzu Stadium on Tuesday afternoon.
The two sides made changes to their regular starting line ups by giving chances to the youthful players and those that have not yet featured in this year’s season.
It was the game of equal chances with both teams playing a beautiful passing game to the excitement of the huge crowd that filled the stadium.
Madinga scored the only goal of the match with a strike that was deflected into the net by a Silver Strikers defender, 17 minutes into the match.
The match which was played for a limited time of 50 minutes, was part of the Kamuzu Day Commemorations, as the country united to celebrate the life of Malawi’s first President, Hastings Kamuzu Banda.
The two team are expected to meat again in the TNM Super League on Sunday at Silver Stadium in what promises to be another exciting encounter.
