Before the final game of the CAF Champions League group stage against Jwaneng Galaxy, Saido Ntibazonkiza was not one of the players that many Simba fans wanted to start in that game
However, his 87 minutes gave the fans an answer as to why Coach Abdelhak Benchikha believes in him and made him one of his most important players in the squad
In that game in which Simba won 6-0 and reached the quarter-finals, Saido was involved in three goals, scoring one goal and providing two assists for the goals scored by Pa Omar Jobe and Clatous Chama
In the Champions League, Saido has been involved in four goals, scoring two goals and providing two assists
In the NBC premier league, Saido is the top scorer in the Simba team scoring five goals
Through the game against Jwaneng, Saido has reminded Nanasimba of his quality which was probably not seen in some matches and led some fans to start losing faith in him
Toward the knockout stage of the Champions League, Saido is still an important weapon for Simba in the pursuit of the semi-finals
