Warriors went into the break leading by a solitary goal. 

Napsa came out in the second half pushing for the equalizer with Mathews Macha coming close. 

Youremember Banda was a live wire in the second half for Napsa but Marcel Kalonda in the Warriors defense stood strong.

But is was a late equalizer from substitute Justus Anene  in the 88th minute which secured a point for the visitors.

A stinging shot by Youremember Banda was parried into the path of Anene who gladly slotted home.

For Mohammed Fathi it is yet another draw and of course a disappointed Warriors team.

“We should have finished the game off in the first half. We had so many chances but we lost concentration and conceded the late goal,” Fathi said.

And Napsa Assistant coach Linos Makwaza praised his side for the resilience.

“We were playing a very tactical side  who are very good at gome and of course a draw is good for us.”
