While tonight Simba fans are expected to 'flock' to Benjamin Mkapa Stadium for the Confederations Cup match against USGN, the club has asked fans not to enter the stadium with 'torches' to illuminate their opponents.
It has become customary for Arab nations to use flashlights to illuminate opponents in their games
Information and Communication Manager Simba club Ahmed Ally, said Simba believes in the quality of the team and they will win because of it
He said Simba has knocked down football giants at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium without the use of 'torches', he believes today victory will also be achieved
He also said that there are many complaints lodged with CAF by clubs and even various nations about the 'torches' so when it comes to CAF deciding to take action, it will not please Simba to be among the clubs that could enter the fray due to its status
"Simba believe in the quality of their squad, we have won tough matches without the flashlights and even today we will win without the flashlights.
"Although the CAF has not said anything about the flashlights, we are aware that many complaints have been lodged with them, when they decide to take action we would not like to be among the teams to be punished," said Ahmed
