Red Lions were first to open the score sheet through Kumbukani Mwambene before Surestream equalized on the spot kick through Benard Chimayimba.
Then Zomba-based soldiers were at it again with an Innocent Bokosi goal before Surestream were awarded another penalty, which they also scored in the dying minutes of the match.
Red Lions were also denied what they thought were three clear goals, which the referee ruled them as off-sides.
After the final whistle, some Red Lions players led by Loti Chawinga manhandled the referee with punches for denying them the three goals and awarding Surestream a penalty.
When the disgruntled ‘Nganyu supporters’ saw the referee being beaten and defenceless they were not happy as they started pelting stones and objects towards Red Lions players trying to rescue the match official.
The angry fans chanted, ‘revenge’ heading towards the dressing room to beat up Red Lions players.
Red Lions players locked up themselves in a dressing room, as the angry fans were pelting stones.
Fans mobilised themselves and smashed Red Lions bus as they continued chanting, ‘Wapalamura chitedze lero chidzakuyabwa.’
After 15 minutes Red Lions players stuck in their dressing room, fellow soldiers from the Blantyre camp arrived at the stadium in a Malawi Defence Force Tata vehicle armed to teeth.
The soldiers started manhandling people. Some went as far as the Masauko Chipembere highway chasing people.
One person, who was severely beaten with sticks tried to reason with the soldiers that he was not among those pelting stones but to no avail he got the beating.
Reports reaching Nyasa Times shows that one person was rushed to the hospital unconscious with several people injured.
On pitch, Surestream bossed the play but they failed to turn the few chances into goals and at times they could not create meaningful chances.
After enjoying early possession, Surestream were shocked when Kumbukani Mwambene scored the opening goal with a thunderous drive before beating Alex Makina in goals.
The hosts dominated the play but the soldiers always looked threatening on counter attacks with Innocent Bokosi and Mwambene displaying some fantastic football.
Red Lions coach Prichard Mwanza blamed the referee for their draw but was quick to condone indiscipline from some of his players for beating up the referee.
“The referee was biased and he is the reason for denying us full points. But I condemn the beating of the referee,” he said.
Surestream coach Peter Mponda was delighted with a first point in the league.

The referee was incompetent and needs to be disciplened. He was the reason behind the ugly scenes. Let us not allow this to continue denting the image of our beloved sport.

ITS HIGH TIME BIG SUPER LEAGUE TEAMS SHOULD SIT DOWN AND DISCUSS OF FORMING
UP A PARALLEL LEAGUE WITHOUT THESE ARMY TEAMS . THESE ARMY TEAMS ARE TAKING
CIVILLIAN TEAMS AS PUPPETS LET THEM PLAY AGAINST THEMSELVES AND CIVILLIANS
PLAY AGAINST THEMSELVES ALSO. LOOK AT WHAT KAMUZU BARRACKS DID LAST WEEK TO
BULLETS BY CHASING THEM AWAY FROM TRAINING AT DEDZA GROUND.
A LEAGUE WITHOUT ARMY TEAMS COULD BE BETTER AND ENJOYABLE , TEAMS SHOULD
NOT ACCEPT APOLOGIES FROM ARMY WE ARE TIRED OF THEM , FAM AND SULOM SHOULD TAKE A HARD STAND ON THESE ARMY TEAMS IT SEEMS THEY ARE TREATED
WITH KID GLOVES, WE ARE WATCHING AND MIND YOU ONE DAY WE SHALL NO FEAR GUNS AND BULLETS WE GONNA GO FOR THEM AND DEAL WITH THEM ACCORDINGLY
Soldierz kusunga mwambo nkofunika
ma team achisitikali azigwiritsa tchito apolice kuteteza mateam awo osati kugwiritsa ntchito gulu la nkhondo.its abuse to non soldiers team
Point of correction, the Coach for Red Lions is Prichard Mwansa not Mwanza. Surestream should find the scoring tackticks don’t rely on penalties. Red Lions be mature what you did was unproffessional am looking forward to hear from SULOM.

Ma referee analandira ndalama awa surestream singamenye red lions. Afa referee ameneyu akangoyerekeza sulom kupeleka ban ku red lions. Umphawi ku malawi kugulidwa zirizonse, kuba ndalama mmageti, kuba m’boma, kupha ma albino etc. Poor nation

Army ya Malawi is full of cowards who shit in their pants at the sight of a Tanzanian soldier!
Mwawachita bwino aganyu sangakuphwanyireni minibus
It’s high time Army Teams were banned due to their unsportsmanship behaviour koma paja SULOM/FAM treat army teams with kid gloves mumva the opposite. Kungomenya match official leads to life ban in FIFA rules
So once again soldiers. no gun no stick, no force in football only red card. I hate u, u have never seen the war thats y mukulimbana ndi anthu wamba anzanu alibe mpata wosewera mpira, shame on u brutal so called soldiers.
Bola pasakhale kukondera pogamulapo timva zaboza apa
Mpira kapena nkhondo
Beating match official is life bane in other leagues shame on you soldiers
