A 23rd minute strike from Emmanuel Allan was enough for the Kaning’ina soldiers to break the 100 percent win run the league leaders have enjoyed at home in the TNM Super League.
Silver Strikers coach Peter Mponda gave Levison Maganizo his debut since returning to the team during the mid season transfer.
Despite enjoying possession, it was the visitors who snatched the lead at 23 minutes when man of the moment Allan connected home a cross from Khumbo Ng’ambi.
The goal forced Mponda to make quick change by pulling out captain Chikondi Kamanga for Chimwemwe Idana who instantly had a mark when he orchestrated a move that led to Zebron Kalima levelling the scores.
In the second half, just as they did against Bullets in the FDH Bank Cup semi final, Moyale came out in attack for a goal. Likewise, Silver pushed for a winner in what was a pulsating encounter in Area 47.
In post match interviews, Mponda conceded the pain of dropping points at home but applauded his boys for a good game regardless of not getting the result they wanted.
On the other hand, coach for Moyale Barracks, Pritchard Mwansa said securing a point away from home is not easy in the top flight and they will go back and concentrate on the coming games.
