BB honeymoon in TNM Super League over
Finally beaten

Defending champions Big Bullets’ distinguished run in the TNM Super League was brought to an end on Sunday by Airborne Rangers who beat them 2-1 at Chitowe Stadium in Dwangwa, Nkhotakota.
It was Bullets’ first league defeat this season after 17 games. They, however, still occupy the top position with 41 points from 18 games, seven points clear of second-placed Mafco who have played two games more.
Rangers, who are third from the bottom with 17 points from 19 matches, showed strong character by coming from a goal down at half time, to emerge triumphant.
Veteran midfielder James Chilapondwa, put Bullets ahead 10 minutes into the match through a penalty that was awarded after a Rangers defender fouled Jaffalie Chande in the goal area.
However, the hosts stepped up the tempo in the second half and in the 67th minute, they cancelled Bullets’ lead through Cephas Zimba.
Then with just two minutes before full-time, Josiah Duwa grabbed the winner.
