Mighty Mukuru Wanderers have failed to displace Chitipa United at the summit of the TNM Super League following a one-all draw against Kamuzu Barracks (KB) at Kamuzu Stadium in Blantyre.
The Nomads had to come from behind to force the draw as defender Lawrence Chaziya cancelled KB’s lead from Olson Kanjira’s strike.
The Nomads now tie with FCB Nyasa Bullets on 37 points, two points behind leaders Chitipa United.
However, Wanderers have two games in hand while Bullets have three.

A brace from Chinsisi Maonga completed the routing.
At Rumphi Stadium, Ekwendeni Hammers narrowly edged Extreme FC 1-0 through Samuel Adeyemi goal to move to position eight with 28 points from 21 games.
