The battle
for seven million kwacha Malawi Schools Sports Associations (MASSA) Copa Coca
cola tournament 2013 came to its very last Sunday at Mzuzu Stadium.
Central West Education Division (CWED) emerged
paramount when they out weighed their counterparts South East Education
Division (SEED) in penalty shoot outs.
The
match was goalless at the end of the official time. In penalty round CWED
managed to put at the back of the net 4 balls against their counterparts 2
balls.
Speaking
after the match coach for the winning CWED team, Charles Senti Banda said he
was very overwhelmed with the victory.
“The
competition was tough despite us clinching on its very tip,” he said.
Banda
also thanked all contesting teams for their courage. He described his team’s
victory towards mature and proper preparations.
Efforts
to hear from SEED side proved futile.
In his
remarks Minister of Youth and Sports Honorable Enock Chakufwa Chihana thanked
Carlsberg Malawi breweries for the sponsorship.
He
thanked the company for reaching out to where the government’s budget fails to
reach out to.
The
Minister has therefore called upon other companies and stakeholders to lead by
example in supporting sports activities in the country.
In his
remarks a Marketer at Coca cola Gwinith Nchiyela thanked government for support.
She also thanked MASSA for proper management of the tournament.
Nchiyela
described MASSA Copa Coca cola football competition as a platform where
Football Associations of Malawi scouts players.
CWED
walked away with k400, 000 money prize and on second position SEED pocketed
K200, 000.
CWED
have become MASSA Copa Coca cola cup champions for five times since the cup
inception 45 years ago.
