Yesterday, Simba announced the ticket prices ahead of the second-leg CAF Champions League playoff match against Nsingizini Hotspurs, which will be played on Sunday, October 26 at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium.
Simba’s Media and Communications Manager, Ahmed Ali, urged Msimbazi faithful to buy their tickets to watch their stars live, while throwing a jab at Yanga who announced their match will have free entry.
Ahmed also announced the slogan leading to the match, which will serve as a special welcome for Simba’s General Manager, Dimitar Pentev.
HATUJA RIDHIKAAA is the motto the Reds will carry into the match, in which Simba go in already leading 3–0 from the first leg.
“We used to shout that we don’t understand how Simba plays — but now it has returned. The terrifying Simba has returned, the all-attacking Simba has returned. So why would you stay home?”
“And these are not words from sleep — these are words from seeing the team play. And the coach said the pitch was small. Now at Mkapa he goes to a big pitch — come to Mkapa and witness Simba cause heavy damage.”
“We have every reason to show the difference between us and others. We are the only Tanzanian club that won away — Zanzibar is not outside Tanzania. We have reason to boast — it is not easy to thrash the champions of Eswatini 3–0. Every Msimbazi supporter has a duty to pay their own ticket. I see others are starting campaigns for free entry — but even though we’ve already won 3–0, let’s go and show our power.”
“The October 26 match will be the match to see the real Dimitar Pantev showing ruthlessness in the battlefield. In the first leg he made it clear he is not satisfied with the team’s level — there is something he wants and we still do not know it.”
“Because the coach says he is not satisfied, we go with the slogan HATUJARIDHIKA, TUNATAKA ZAIDI. Only funerals have free entry — we are going for entertainment, and entertainment must have entry fees.”
“You cannot watch a Club World Cup player — Seleman, Rushine, Kagoma, Morice, Nangu — for free. That day we go to enjoy; if you have your babe, come with them; if you have family, come with them. This is entertainment — it cannot be free,” Ahmed boasted.
