They are back to their best. And, winning ways.
It was an exciting match and the atmosphere was ecstatic and euphoric. The spectators were electric, and the players from both sides, were ready and sturdy to give everything.
For the home team, it took just a few minutes to take a lead in the game.
It was only the seventh minute for the Bullets to scatter the Hammers’ minds through Chawanangwa Gumbo who struck gold, scoring the first goal for hosts setting the intention for the game.
After the game, the visitors put in an extra shift come back into the game, but the Bullets’ defence was solid and was not having it to let the Hammers respond to the assault.
As the game got on, Patrick Mwaungulu took centre stage, weaved creatively through his way putting the ball into the back of the net thereby sealing the win with a classic goal just four minutes after the hour mark.
The crowd erupted in cheers and jeers as Big Bullets secured all the desired three points.
Mwaungulu’s outstanding performance earned him the Man of the Match award, capping off a stellar day for Big Bullets.
With this win, the current league leaders have now moved to second place on the log table behind top of the league sitters, the bankers, Silver Strikers.
