ZAMBIA Army (ZA) sponsored side Green Buffaloes  Football  Club  (GBFC) scooped  the 2015 Barclays  Cup  convincingly beating  High Flying Nkwazi  Football Club 2-0 (NFC) with both  goals arriving in  the first half of an exciting final registering their name as a top notch outfit .

President   Edgar  Chagwa Lungu, Youth , Sports and Child Development Minister Vincent Mwale  and Football  Association Zambia President  Kalusha  Bwalya  graced the memorable Barclays  Cup  final at Lusaka’s Nkoloma  stadium

It  was the ‘Soldiers’  team led by  coach Bilton Musonda  that employed  war zone attitude using their ammunitions with skill when   the  Jackson Chirwa  marshaled midfield  alongside Buchizya Mfune  and Adrian Chama, launched suicide commando’s  attack on the stubborn  defence  system  of the Zambia Police team  led by  hard tackling  Rodrick Zimba , Noah Tembo   and  veteran  player Michael  Bwalya.

This attack paid off when  Buffaloes  in-form winger Sabastian  Mwansa  delivered  and over lapping left back  Stephen  Kabamba  tapped after  a goal  mouth scramble to make 1-0 in the 20^th minute.

The police outfit team put behind the led and kept  pressing  in the first half with  defender  Andrew  Tembo  and  captain Chipungu  Musukwa   making runs to Buffaloes  goal  area  to  campaign  for an equalizing  goal.

In the 35^th minute  Green Buffaloes doubled the lead after captain Christopher  Katongo  2012 British Broadcasting (BBC) player of the year managed to  converted  a penalty following a foul play by Determined  Nkwazi Goal keeper Makasa  Kalaba  who  tripped  Bufaloes  striker Malani  Gondwe  down to make 2-0.

Nkwazi Vice-Captain  Chikandiwa was a marvel to watch in the  middle of the park as tried to make  in-  roads to Buffaloes Goal   and was later denied by the goal post   in the second half.

And  Nkwazi’s Upcoming  goal keeper  Makasa  Kalaba who was arguably man of match  made daring saves and also flew  high in the 43th minute  to parry away  Sabastian Mwansa  hot shot  which was sure fire goal, Kalaba cried  uncontrollably  after losing  the game  and was seen  being consoled by his colleagues.
