Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)- based forward Lanjesi Nkhoma is scoring prolifically for Tout Puissant (TP) Mazembe in the play-offs phase of the Linafoot Vodacom League 1.
The Malawian grabbed the headlines again when he scored for Mazembe in a 1-1 stalemate against Saint-Eloi Lupopo in the Lubumbashi derby at the Stade Kibasa Maliba on Tuesday.
Nkhoma gave Mazembe the first-half lead but Lupopo equalised in the second half as the spoils were shared.
It was Nkhoma’s third goal for Mazembe since he returned to the Vodacom League 1 defending champions.

Both Mwaungulu and Nkhoma had loan spell at Mazembe’s sister club Don Bosco.

The two players were loaned out to Bosco as Mazembe were banned from registering players.
Following the lifting of the Fifa ban, Mazembe registered the two players last month.

Njaliwa scored a brace as Costa do Sol defeated Pemba Bay 2-0 on Saturday.
He was voted as player-of-the-match.
Njaliwa also had a good season last year.
His compatriot midfielder Chikoti Chirwa was in the starting line-up on Saturday.
