Bullets answers Airtel’s 5th final call

FCB Nyasa Big Bullets have cruised to the final of the 2025 Airtel Top 8 Cup after defeating Karonga United 2-1 under floodlights at Bingu National Stadium in Lilongwe.

Bullets opened the scoring through Chikumbutso Salima after a strong header from a Peter Banda freekick.

In the second half, Karonga United had a sense of resurgence as Robert Luhanga scored similarly from a Patrick Phiri set-piece.

However, their joy was cut short when bullets scored again after Hassan Kajoke did justice to a Chawanangwa Gumbo pass when he was left unmarked.

This means Bullets await the victor between Silver Strikers and Civil Service United at the same venue.

Blessing Mpokera has been named man of the match.
