Commenting on the draw, Bullets assistant coach Peter Mponda said although they would have preferred to face Wanderers in the final, they are ready for their bitter rivals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we are to be the best we must beat the best at any stage of the competition. Therefore, we are happy to face Wanderers. It will be a case of a final before the final as our teams command a large following,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mafco assistant coach Yohane Fulaye, who took charge of the team in the absence of head coach Temwa Msuku said they felt robbed of the game. Mafco took the lead in the 18th minute of the game through Paul Phiri\u2019s goal but Bullets won through late two goals by Babatunde Adepoju, including a stoppage time controversial penalty.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not good to see the referee [Mercy Mziya] helping our opponents win the game through controversial goals after we had taken the lead. This is not good for the good of the game,\u201d said the former, Illovo and Red Lions prolific striker.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
