ZSL 2019/2020 REVIEW PART 1

      The 2019/2020 MTN SUPER LEAGUE so far has been exciting and we expect nothing less as lovers of the Zambian game, to show our love for the Zambian game Zedbola will gladly give you a review of league football so far and here it goes:

       To get the title of “MOST CONSISTENT & ENTERTAINING TEAM SO FAR” is POWER DYNAMOS FC, the Kitwe giants have been in scintillating form since the appointment of the coaching duo of Perry Mutapa and Masauso Tembo; Power Dynamos FC have been a machine playing attractive football and have in the last 5 games beaten all their opponents convincingly bagging a record of 5 wins, scoring 10 goals in 5 games (averaging 2 goals in each game) and conceding 0 goals in the process. It must be said that Power Dynamos have had the most dramatic turn so far in the league from being every team’s favourite opponent to the most feared opponent in just a few weeks. One can only wonder how far the Kitwe side will go this season: top four, CCC or CCL football, Champions of the league… no one knows, for now we wait and see.   

        To get the title of “BEST PLAYER SO FAR” is Zesco United FC marks man JESSE JACKSON WERE, it’s safe to say that giving him this title will be accepted by many as he has once again shown that he is a top player in the league; leading the top goal scorer chart with 10 goals bagging hat tricks along the way making it look easy and if he isn’t scoring goals then he is creating them for his team mates showing us his creative side of the game, to top it off his professionalism whenever he walks onto the pitch is exemplary to not only his team mates but to even the young football lovers that watch him play.

         To get the unwanted title of “WEAKEST DEFENCE” is Kabwe Youth Soccer Academy, the Kabwe based side have earned the title after 15 weeks of league football in which they have conceded a total of 30 goals, scoring a total of 10 goals giving them a goal difference of -20 which is also the largest compared to any team in the league.
