Speaking after the game Ekwendeni Hammers’ head coach, Elias Chirambo, said they lost the game due to lack of composure by his charges.

Mark Harrison, Wanderers Head Coach praised his charges for putting up a wonderful perfomance.
“Despite this being a terrible pitch to play on, the boys played good football, that is why we won the game against Ekwendeni which is a good team,” said Harrison.
Wanderers hitman Vincent Nyangulu was voted Player of the Match.
