The Tanzania national football team, 'Taifa Stars', will today conclude their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign with a match against Zambia.
The encounter is scheduled to take place at the New Amaan Complex Stadium in Zanzibar at 10:00 p.m. local time.
Tanzania’s hopes of advancing to the next round as one of the ‘best losers’ were dashed following a 1–1 draw against Congo Brazzaville in their previous match.
With 10 points, *Taifa Stars* sit second in Group E behind leaders Morocco, who have already secured qualification. As such, tonight’s fixture serves mainly as a formality for Tanzania.
However, the match still carries significance in terms of improving Tanzania’s FIFA ranking. For Zambia, it’s a chance to avenge their 1–0 defeat to Tanzania in the first leg played in Lusaka.
