If there is a shortfall I might top up,\u201d he said. Mpinganjira dedicated the cup to the team\u2019s supporters for enduring a three-year trophy drought and he urged them to be disciplined.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am so happy especially after what we have gone through and our meeting at the club house on Wednesday. And I, in turn, dedicate it to our supporters who have suffered for years but stuck to the club. This is their reward for being loyal to Wanderers Football Club,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Wanderers Captain Alfred Manyozo Jnr said the players worked hard to impress Mpinganjira and their sponsors Mukuru. \u201cWe had to do the talking on the pitch. We all worked hard and we are happy that we delivered what we were asked,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Wanderers Board Secretary Chancy Gondwe appealed for support from both supporters and directors. \u201cOur victory in the Airtel Top 8 Cup shows that the team is heading in the right direction. The players responded positively by winning the cup following our meeting at the club house few days ago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, we need to be united and support the team. Therefore, all supporters and directors should support the team,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday\u2019s match ended in a goalless draw in regulation time but Wanderers players Stanley Sanudi, Francis Mkonda, Miracle Gabeya, Peter Cholopi and Vincent Nyangulu scored all their spot kicks while Bullets converted through Hassan Kajoke, Yamikani Fodya and Babatunde Adepoju.<\/p>\n<p>Bullets defender Kesten Simbi blasted his penalty over the bar, gifting Wanderers the advantage. Wanderers last won a cup in 2018 when they lifted the Fisd Challenge Cup.<\/p>\n<p>Peter Fote is a Sports Journalist with huge experience in radio and Television reporting, production and presentation.
