The stage is set for a thrilling top-of-the-table clash as FCB Katswiri Under 20 League leaders FCB Nyasa Big Bullets U19s face off second-placed Agumbala Stars at Police Training School Ground on Friday morning.
Heading into Matchweek 11, Bullets seek redemption after their 1-0 defeat to Manchester Motors on Monday, while Agumbala Stars aim to extend their unbeaten streak and probably go top of the table.
With 25 points, our Under-19s hold a slender two-point lead over Friday’s opponents and this tie is poised to be an electrifying battle between two title contenders.
Yamikani Fodya is anticipating a tough match but is confident that his boys have learned from previous mistakes and are ready for the challenge.
“We’re not expecting a simple game. Agumbala Stars are a formidable opponent, and their position in the league speaks for itself. But my boys are ready, we’ve polished our mistakes from Monday’s defeat, and we’re hungry for a win,” the former Bullets left-back told club media.
He added: “Agumbala Stars are a tough opponent, but we’re confident in our abilities, we’ll give it our all and leave everything on the pitch.”
With a remarkable record of eight wins, a draw and one loss in the league, the young Bullets are determined to bounce back and maintain their top spot. Agumbala stars, on the other hand, have been in impressive form with seven wins and two draws in nine games.
