In the first half both sides lacked composure and marksmanship upfront hence goalkeepers Richard Chipuwa and Jose Guirrugo were on holiday.<\/p>\n<p>The midfield was also abit slow and failed to supply good balls upfront which made the game boring. The two coaches then started making some changes as they searched for the goals.<\/p>\n<p>The first half ended nil nil,in the second half both teams started on high note but it was UD Songo who spit fire,sending powerful shots at Chipuwa\u2019s goal.<\/p>\n<p>Bheu Januario scored the first goal for Songo at 60th minute from a stunning grass cutter free kick that left Chipuwa powerless on goals. Dario Melo netted the second goal towards the end of the game.<\/p>\n<p>Mark Harrison, Head Coach for Wanderers FC, said the defeat is a good lesson while acknowledging UD Songo FC are equally a good side. He added that they will use the same approach against FCB Nyasa Big Bullets FC in their second match on Saturday 4th March,2023.<\/p>\n<p>UD Songo FC coach, Carolz Manuel, described the encounter against Wanderers as good as it helped him assessing the new signings ahead of the forthcoming season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI started with my last season\u2019s first eleven before we made several changes,I am impressed with the way they played.It was our first pre -season match and looking forward to do much better against Ferroviario De Nampula on Saturday\u201d, Manuel said.<\/p>\n<p>The early kick off saw FCB Nyasa Big Bullets FC being held to a goalless draw by Ferroviario De Nampula at the same venue Kamuzu Stadium. However it was a game which the two sides attacked so aggressively and had more goal attempts than the Wanderers FC,UD Songo FC game.<\/p>\n<p>UD Songo FC are leading the table with 3 points while on second position are their Mozambican counterpart Ferroviario De Nampula with 1 point and on third position are FCB Nyasa Big Bullets FC while Mark Harrison\u2019s side anchor the table with zero point.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, the international Bonanza will call for first Blantyre Derby between long time crosstown rivals,FCB Nyasa Big Bullets FC and Mighty Mukuru Wanderers FC from 15:00 hours,while UD Songo FC will take on Ferroviario De Nampula from 12:00hours.<\/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.
