Silver brought in Green Harawa, Chawanangwa Kaonga and Blessings Tembo for Dave Moya, Patrick Gunda and Asedi Ayami respectively.
The game had little to write about until referee Simon Jovinala blew the final whistle.
It was a good result to Azam Tigers Technical Director , Robbin Alufanidka, who could not hide his excitement.
“It was a very good game as well as difficult game as you know Silver is a star studded side but we outplayed them and that speaks volume on how much serious we are this season,” Alufandika told Nyasa Times after the game.
“We want to maintain being in the top three until we grab the championship,” he added.
