Head coach for the Hammers, Elias Chirambo said his team played well in the game only that they are failing to convert their chances which they need to beef up the squad ahead of the second round.

"We have some players coming to join the team of which mostly are strikers so that we solve the problem of not scoring but the team has been playing well in the last five games that I was in charge." Said Chirambo.

Hammers side remain 15th on the table with 8 points from 15 games as well as they have two wins, two draws and 11 losses after
