Deploying a 4-3-3 formation, Green Buffaloes Women FC lined up with Ngambo Musole in goal, protected by a back four consisting of Racheal Nachula at right back, Memory Nthala and Margret Gondwe as central defenders, and Esther Siamfuko covering the left-back position. The midfield trio featured Lydia Shamalima on the right, Esther Banda centrally, and Natasha Nanyangwe on the left, providing both defensive cover and attacking support. Upfront, the front three saw Agness Phiri on the right wing, Maylan Mulenga leading the line as striker, and Maweta Chilenga operating on the left flank. The substitutes available were Agness Ondya, Diana Banda, and Regina Kayamboma.
The first half was a cagey affair with both sides probing cautiously, but it ended goalless at the interval. Green Buffaloes Women FC’s shape ensured solidity at the back while looking to exploit the flanks and midfield creativity.
Shortly after the restart, the deadlock was broken in the 51st minute when goalkeeper Ngambo Musole launched a precise long pass forward that found Lydia Shamalima inside the box. Shamalima controlled expertly before slotting the ball home, giving Green Buffaloes Women FC a deserved lead. This goal highlighted the team’s ability to transition quickly from defence to attack.
Just four minutes later, tactical changes were made to maintain momentum and freshen the side. Agness Ondya replaced Agness Phiri on the right wing, while Diana Banda came on for right back Racheal Nachula. These substitutions aimed to inject energy and maintain the team’s attacking threat as well as defensive stability.
The remainder of the second half saw Green Buffaloes Women FC control possession and restrict Amazing Grace Football Club’s opportunities. The defence remained resolute, with Memory Nthala and Margret Gondwe marshaling the central areas effectively.
In stoppage time, Green Buffaloes Women FC sealed the victory with a spectacular goal from Maylan Mulenga. Taking a direct free-kick from long range, Mulenga struck the ball cleanly with her right foot, sending it past the goalkeeper and into the net. This late strike underscored her technical ability and composure under pressure.
Immediately following the goal, Mulenga was substituted off for Regina Kayamboma, a tactical move to close out the match and preserve the lead.
Esther Banda’s commanding presence in central midfield was pivotal throughout the match, earning her one of the player of the match honours alongside the impactful substitute Agness Ondya, who brought fresh impetus after coming on.
Green Buffaloes Women FC’s disciplined 4-3-3 setup, combined with clinical finishing and tactical astuteness, ensured a well-earned 2-0 victory away from home against Amazing Grace Football Club.
