“I do not know when I will return to the field, but the main thing is that I am still getting treatment for the problem that is bothering me, but thank God I am still fine even though the treatment is not over yet,” Shaibu said as quoted by
“I think I will be ready and available for the Simba derby, but still everything needs the recovery program to be followed and how the treatment is going because even if you look at us we are in a lot of competition for the Premier League title due to the remaining matches.”
We thank the fans, members, and all the Young Africans SC supporters for filling the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium in readiness for the game against Simba, Wananchi posted on their official social media platforms. [Simba] are lucky because they were going to suffer. Wananchi relax, justice might be delayed but eventually it will be served.
Shukrani kwa Mashabiki, Wanachama na Wapenzi wa Young Africans Sc kwa kujitokeza kwenye uwanja wa Benjamin Mkapa, kwenye mchezo wetu wa leo dhidi ya Simba Sc.

It is a move that has not been well by Timu ya Wananchi, who insisted they will stick to the initial plan. The Yanga management is disappointed with the pushing forward of the game against Simba from 5 pm to 7 pm, read a statement obtained by
Goal. The changes are against the rules; article 15 (10) of the rules governing the game in the country states any changes regarding the kick-off should be communicated to both teams 24 hours earlier. Yanga management will not agree on the kick-off time communicated and will honour the initial time, 5 pm. The management has further challenged the TFF to run the league in accordance with the set rules and guidelines.
The Belgian tactician, who is still unbeaten since joining Yanga as a replacement for Serbian Zlatko Krmpotic, has revealed his players deserved to win the game in normal time but they relaxed, which allowed Azam to hold them to a draw.
“The intensity of the match was high but the match was very slow,” Kaze said as quoted by
“We did not pressurise our opponents for more goals, instead we got back to defend and this resulted for Azam to gain the confidence to recovery and score an equalizer.”
Kaze has, however, praised his players for their quality from the penalty spot and said they are in the final to win the trophy.
