Dan Kabwe expresses concerns over Silver Strikers goal conversion rate

Lucky Mwewa Chama | 03-04-22

TNM Super League side Silver Strikers coach Dan Kabwe has noted that the team has been creating many chances which they have not been converting.

Reacting to Sunday’s 2-1 win over Mighty Wanderers, Kabwe says the Bankers are good to go after collecting three points following a loss to Blue Eagles in their previous encounter.

Kabwe described Sunday’s match as tactical game but was pleased that the team managed to prevail.

He said: “We are coming from a loss and the one today was a very tactical game, but we prevailed. We are good to go after collecting three points. We created so many chances, but our problem is scoring. But we won and that’s good going forward.”

Silver Strikers revived their TNM Super League campaign with a crucial 2-1 win against Mighty Wanderers at Silver Stadium in Lilongwe.

Duncan Nyoni had put the hosts ahead in the 60th minute with a fine goal, but Wanderers equalised in the 77th minute through Muhammad Sulumba.

Then defender Miracle Gabeya’s failure to communicate with his goalkeeper Richard Chipuwa gifted the Central Bankers the points.

His clearance landed on an advancing Davie to score in the 85th minute and send Silver to fifth on the log table with 11 points from seven games while Wanderers are seventh with 10 points from seven games.

It was a great recovery for Silver who last week went down 1-0 to Blue Eagles.
