Premier Bet Wizards have set themselves a target of 25 points in the TNM Super League\u2019s first round.<\/p>\n
Wizards\u2019 Coach, Trevor Kajawa, said this following his side\u2019s 1-0 win over Mzuni FC at Mzuzu Stadium on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Misheck Bottom\u2019s spot-kick earned Wizards, who have lost once in eight league games, maximum points.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a tough a game. Coming to Mzuni and get all the points is a great achievement. These points will be our driving factor for us to finish among the top eight sides so that we can participate in the Airtel Top 8 Cup next year.<\/p>\n
\u201cRight now we just want to collect 25 points by the end of the first round so that we should not have much work to do in the second round,\u201d Kajawa said after condemning Mzuni to their third straight league defeat.<\/p>\n
Mzuni Coach, Alex Ngwira, however, insisted that it was too early to suggest that his team was in a crisis.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat is how football is. We were winning and drawing and now we are losing\u2026 it is normal. We did not play badly today. Their goal came through a penalty and we were a better side for about 75 minutes, so this is not a crisis,\u201d Ngwira said.<\/p>\n
In Lilongwe, there was a goals\u2019 galore at Civo Stadium in Lilongwe on Saturday as Civil Sporting Club and Blue Eagles played out to 3-3 draw.<\/p>\n
Mphatso Philimon netted a hat-trick for Eagles whereas Righteous Banda, Raphael Phiri and Fletcher Bandawe scored for Civil.<\/p>\n
Eagles have 12 points from eight games whereas Civil have eight points from the same number of games.<\/p>\n
In a post-match reaction, Civil assistant Coach, Oscar Kaunda, said his side conceded cheap goals.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a good game but we made some silly mistakes,\u201d Kaunda said.<\/p>\n
Eagles Coach, Audloy Makonyola, said his charges lost concentration.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe players did well but at a certain stage, we relaxed a bit. We could have won the game had it been that we had maintained our tempo,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
