Moroccan giants Raja Casablanca continued with their emphatic start to the group stages of the TotalEnergies CAF Champions League after seeing off Tanzania’s Simba 3-0 at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium in Dar es Salaam on Saturday.

Simba looked to have held their own but cracked in the final 10 minutes 

of the game to concede twice and diminish their slimmest hopes to take 

at least a draw from the game.

Hamza Khabba had given the visitors a first-half lead, but Simba seemed 

to have picked themselves up and looked determined for a good result at 

home.

However, Soufiane Benjdida scored the second for Raja in the 83rd 

minute before Ismail Mokadem’s penalty two minutes later sealed the victory.

With the result, Raja, who last weekend thrashed Uganda’s Vipers 5-0 sat top 

of Group C with a maximum of six points while Simba sits at the bottom 

of the group with zero points after back-to-back losses.

Khabba gave Raja the lead on the half-hour mark with a beautiful strike 

into the roof of the net from the edge of the box after being played through 

by Zakaria Habti.

It was a well-deserved lead as they had played better, and they took it to the 

halftime break.

In the second half, Simba came back more determined and pushed Raja to 

defend deep, looking for that crucial goal to take them back into the tie.

John Bocco came close when he slid in to try to connect to a Clatous Chama 

freekick but he was a few seconds late as Anas Zniti collected the ball before 

him.

Simba continued their push but was put off with seven minutes left when 

Benjdida scored the second for Raja. The substitute who had just spent six 

minutes on the pitch controlled the ball inside the box before volleying beyond 

Aishi Manula.

Raja sealed the tie two minutes later when Mokadem scored from the spot 

after Joash Onyango committed a foul inside the box.

Simba tried to rally late for a goal back with Moses Phiri and Jean Baleke 

having shots go just wide.

AS Vita Club 1-2 Petro de Luanda

Elsewhere in Kinshasa, Petro de Luanda picked up a precious 2-1 win 

away to AS Vita Club. Tiago Azulao and Anderson Cruz scored in either 

half, while Vita’s consolation was scored by Eric Kabwe.

With the result, Petro who started their campaign with a draw against JS 

Kabilye move top of the group with four points.

TFF to chop off institution clubs

18th December 2012

TFF president Leodegar Tenga

The  Tanzania Football Federation is expected to comply with the world football governing body FIFA in writing off top flight sides owned by single institutions.

FIFA has directed all football associations affiliated to the body globally to chop down all teams that are owned by institutions. In this case an Institution is supposed to won just one team and not more than that so as to have full-fledged competitive leagues.

Institutions that have more than one team in the current premiership flee will be forced to compress into just one football club.

In this case teams from Police, JKT and Sugar processors will be highly affected. JKT or National Service has a huge number of teams competing in the Mainland premiership.

JKT has five teams of Mgambo, Ruvu, Ruvu Shooting and Oljoro while Sugar processors have Mtibwa and Kagera.

The objective of the FUIFA directive is to improve the degree of competition among the teams in the leagues.

Multiple ownership of clubs within one institution has in most cases prompted match fixing particularly in circumstances when one team is on the verge of either winning the title or facing relegation.

So far it has not been proved a case for fixing results in the Mainland premiership but the situation once left to prevail might one day backfire.

The TFF president Leodegar Tenga said there is no short cut to the FUIFA directive and all teams owned by a single institution will have to be merged into one. He declined to comment when the chopping off of the teams will be effected but he acknowledged that the possibility is wide open and will be enforced.

The directive will not affect other premiership teams in the likes of Simba, Yanga, Azam, Toto Africa and Coastal Union.
However, Tanzania prisons and Police teams will be compelled to avoid other teams belonging to their institutions not to target premiership promotion.

TFF uncertain of Zambia arrival

TFF information officer, Boniface Wambura

The Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) is so far not sure when the African champions Zambia would land in Dar es Salaam ahead of the friendly international later this week.

The TFF information officer, Boniface Wambura, said probably today they might be in a position to know exactly when the team would jet in for the match.

Zambia had earlier confirmed to honour the friendly international against Tanzania national soccer team, Taifa Stars, days before Christmas.

The confirmation has prompted Taifa Stars coach Kim Poulsen to summon his players for a week-long training to gear up for the clash.

The Tanzania-Zambia match will be the second friendly in two months after playing against Kenya last month ahead of the Senior Challenge Cup in Mwanza.

 All players for the Taifa Stars have reported and are training under the Danish coach at the National Stadium in Dar es Salaam where the match will be played this weekend.

Taifa Stars squad has been highly boosted with the arrival of TP Mazembe’s striking duo of Mbwana Samata and Thomas Ulimwengu.

The duo’s release has in most cases been surrounded by uncertainty as they were not available during the Senior Challenge Cup championship that ended in Kampala on December 8.

The team would miss striker John Bocco, defender Said Nassor and goalkeeper Mwadini Ali for various reasons, including injury.

Otherwise, Wambura said the training goes on well and has been highly boosted by the change of weather that has helped to cool down simmering summer temperatures.

Zambia won the African championship for the first time in history when Gabon and Equatorial Guinea co-hosted the tournament in January through February this year.
The team would be leaving for South Africa where the Nations Cup will be held and they need to plot a title retention bid.

Their friendly in Dar es Salaam might be the last before boarding the flight to Johannesburg for title defence.
