Simba secured an important 2–1 victory over Singida Black Stars at Airtel Stadium in Singida in an entertaining NBC Premier League clash.
It was a tough encounter, but Simba relied on their experience to claim a crucial away win and collect all three points.
Simba made a bright start to the match, taking the lead as early as the 7th minute through Anicet Oura. The winger capitalized on poor defending by Singida Black Stars, who failed to properly clear the ball inside their penalty area, allowing Oura to score his first league goal for the club.
However, the hosts responded before halftime. Just minutes before the break, Mossi leveled the score with a powerful header after connecting with a cross from Lamine Jarjou.
In the second half, Singida Black Stars looked dangerous, especially through quick counterattacks, but it was Simba who found the decisive moment late in the game.
Super substitute Elie Mpanzu scored the winning goal in the 85th minute, finishing off a cross from Clatous Chama. Mpanzu outran the Singida defenders, who appeared to think he was offside, before calmly slotting the ball into the net.
The victory earns Simba three valuable points, lifting them to third place in the league standings with 27 points.
