Gilbert Banda suffers career threatening injury

FORMER Warriors' defender Gilbert Banda's soccer career could be over following a suspected Achilles tendon injury he sustained during Bantu Rovers' 2-1 win over Bosso 90 at Luveve Stadium yesterday.

Banda picked the injury in the 40th minute when Rovers were leading Bosso 90 2-0, and was replaced by Leslie Lunga.

The former Highlanders and FC Platinum defender was taken to hospital after the game.

Rovers' general manager Wilbert Sibanda said they will only know the gravity of Banda's injury today.
