Simba Head Coach Juma Mgunda has congratulated his players for successfully emerging with a 1-0 victory against Tanzania Prisons in the premier league game played at Sokoine Stadium yesterday
Mgunda has said that the game was difficult due to the history of the teams when they meet in the Sokoine stadium, but the important thing for them is that they were able to leave with all three points
"We have been able to get results in a difficult game against Prisons. We know we did not have a good record against Prisons when we played at the Sokoine stadium. Our colleagues have been getting more results so they came competitively," said Mgunda
Mgunda also explained the reason behind the removal of defender Hennock Inonga and his place was taken by Joash Onyango noting that the change was necessary because Inonga suffered injuries
"No one likes to win as a coach, Inonga's change was necessary because he suffered injuries"
Simba's only goal in the game was scored by Jonas Mkude connecting a header from Kibu Denis
Simba returns to the city of Dar es Salaam to prepare for the second leg of the Champions League against Nyasa Big Bullets which will be played on Sunday, September 18 at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium
