It was the army side that took the lead in the 34th minute through Lloyd Katongomara who pounced on a loose ball inside his opponents’ box to beat a badly exposed Ronald Mudimu in goals for Sugar Sugar Boys.

However, second-half substitute Hillary Bakacheza levelled the scores in the 75th minute with a vicious drive in a goalmouth melee.

The draw left Buffaloes with a single point after having lost their opening match to Harare giants Dynamos last week in Harare.

Buffaloes head coach Joseph Takaringofa said he was not happy with the result.

“We should have won the match but we failed to defend our lead and we are going to address this as a matter of urgency,’’ he said.

His counterpart, Kelvin Kaindu said he was disappointed after they failed to repeat their 5-2 drubbing of Hwange.

“We failed to produce the same showing we did against Hwange and I am disappointed,” he said.
