Blue Eagles FC have made a successful return to the TNM Super League after securing a 4-1 victory over Armour Battalion on Wednesday, to secure promotion with two games remaining in the Central Region Chipiku Premier Division League.
The Area 30 giants were relegated from the top flight in the 2023 season in a heartbreaking fashion on the final day, after they suffered a 1-0 defeat at home against Salima based MAFCO FC.
Despite finishing level on points, goals scored, and goals conceded with Moyale Barracks FC, Blue Eagles were relegated on head-to-head record. Determined to reclaim their Super League status, Blue Eagles commenced on a dominant campaign in the 2024 Central Region Chipiku Premier Division League.
They won 17 matches, drew 3, and registered an impressive goal tally of 48 while conceding only 10.
Their success in the lower league was matched by a historic achievement in the FDH Bank Cup. Blue Eagles stunned the 2023 FDH Cup champions FCB Nyasa Big Bullets in the final, clinching the title at Bingu National Stadium.
This victory also marked their second consecutive cup final win against Bullets, following their victory in the 2018 Airtel Top 8 final. With their sights now set on the TNM Super League, Blue Eagles are poised to make a strong statement in the 2025 season, building on their remarkable comeback journey.
