Mbada returns with a big bang as Gunners face Dynamos

the team’s failure in Angola, attention now shifts to the domestic Premiership.
Chunga reminded his former paymasters, who humiliated him 4-0 on his first assignment when he returned to Gunners, that they should expect a tougher challenge from his youthful side.
DeMbare needed a penalty shootout to dismiss relegation-bound Quelaton after the match had ended 1-1 in regulation time.
Gunners have been struggling in the league recently and are sitting in the mucky waters of the relegation zone.
But they surprised Chicken Inn in the first round as they rallied from behind to snatch a dramatic 3-2 win in Pelandaba. Chunga believes his side has struck the right chord after dismissing Quelaton 1-0 in the last Premiership match and would want them to build on that run.
“I believe cup games are different from league matches and the lucky team of the day wins,” said Chunga.
“It’s going to present the youngsters with an opportunity to prove themselves and an early Christmas present for the team.
“Dynamos are on a roll and they have too much firepower than us but we always want to be positive in our approach.
“We lost quite a number of players but we just need to go and play our usual game.
“We would want to build from our last win against Quelaton and maintain the momentum,” said Chunga.
