Football game tension is increasing and rife as Malawi’s Mighty Wanderers and FCB Nyasa Big Bullets football fanatics await the highly anticipated Blantyre derby scheduled for this Saturday, hoping the game will end in style.
In a special interview with the sports analyst, Kim Kamau expects the Blantyre Derby to be an exciting game as both teams will be meeting tomorrow since they are both in good performance whereby both teams have not yet lost a game since the start of the first round of the super league season, citing that the only difference is that Wanderers have only drawn one game and Bullets has played more games compared with the opponents.
Kamau further said that the recent fierce rivalry battle for Blantyre giants has not been as attractive as it should be following a single team dominance (FCB Bullets), however he has urged both teams to give their best to spice up the derby.
Currently, FCB Nyasa Big Bullets tops the TNM Super League standings with 18 points after 6 games played, while Mighty Wanderers are in second position with 13 points after 5 games played since the beginning of the first round.
In honour of the derby, both teams have agreed to honor the soccer legend late Yasin Salim Osman who played for both teams and died as the Wandererstechnical director hence, the lates portrait will be carried onto the pitch before kickoff whereby a moment of silence will be observed at the pitch`s Centre.
