Malawi’s Nyasa Big Bullets beat Moyale Barracks 3-1 on Saturday afternoon to retain the TNM Super League championship for a fourth consecutive time.
A double from up-and-coming striker Lanjesi Nkhoma and defender Gomezgani Chirwa’s late goal at Kamuzu Stadium in Blantyre did the job for Bullets.
Llyod Njaliwa scored the consolation goal for the visiting soldiers of Moyale from Mzuzu.
The wins mean Bullets next matches against Karonga United and Dedza Dynamos are merely academic.
