A thrilling encounter between Mwos FC and Scottland at Ngoni Stadium yesterday was marked by a dramatic halftime incident, with both teams refusing to use the changing rooms. The Mwos players, including substitutes, congregated at the centre circle, prompting Scottland captain Walter Musona to join them in an attempt to calm the situation. The halftime team talk was eventually held on the pitch, with the teams emerging just five minutes before the restart.
The match itself was an intense, end-to-end affair, with both teams creating scoring opportunities. Mwos’s Mario Chihweta Jr. was a standout performer, causing problems on the right wing with his pace and skill. However, it was Scottland’s veteran Khama Billiat who made the decisive contribution, nodding home a clever pass from Mafios to give his team the lead.

Book NowThe hosts pushed hard for an equalizer, but Scottland’s defense held firm, securing a valuable 1-0 win. The victory lifts Scottland to within two points of log leaders Caps United, who face Bosso away today.
Scottland coach Norman Mapeza was delighted with his team’s performance, praising Khama Billiat’s contribution and acknowledging the team’s failure to capitalize on chances in the first half. “We played three tough games in four days, and I’m happy with the way my boys are playing,” he said.
Lloyd “Samaita” Mutasa echoed Mapeza’s sentiments, highlighting the team’s lack of clinicality in front of goal. “We lacked precision, but overall, our boys played very well against the defending champions,” he said.
The win is a significant boost for Scottland, and they will look to build on this momentum in their upcoming fixtures.
