CAFCL: Dynamos will fight to the end – says Willard Mwanza

Power Dynamos goalkeeper Willard Mwanza has revealed their readiness ro fight until the end so as to secure a place in the knockout stages of the CAF Champions League.

The Zambian Super League side claimed their first victory in the group stage of the lucrative competition with a hard-fought 1-0 away win against Rivers United, condemning the Nigerian side to another frustrating night.

The decisive moment came five minutes after the restart when Kundwani Chiboni struck to secure all three points for Dynamos. The midfielder timed his run perfectly to meet a well-weighted pass from Prince Mumba before calmly slotting the ball into the net to silence the home crowd.

‘Dynamos are not going to give up easily’

“We didn’t start well, but that is water under the bridge,” Mwanza told BolaNews in an interview. “The win has motivated us to do well in the remaining two games.”

He added: “It’s a good chance for the team to secure qualification to the next round of the competition.”

Mwanza continued: “This is football; anything is possible. We will fight until the end.

“We’re not going to give up easily, and we will make sure we collect the much-needed results at home. We know what is at stake and what is expected of us, so we are ready to deliver.”

Dynamos will host RS Berkane at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium this Saturday in Ndola.

The result in Nigeria lifted Dynamos to four points in Group A, keeping them firmly in contention for qualification, while Rivers United remained bottom of the standings with just one point from their four matches, leaving their hopes of progress hanging by a thread.
