Simba SC have booked their place in the quarter-finals of the CRDB Federation Cup in style after securing a 3-1 victory over Dodoma Jiji at Sheikh Amri Abeid Stadium in Arusha.
Dodoma Jiji took an early lead in the 9th minute through Khleffin Hamdoun, a goal that initially piled pressure on Simba. However, the response from Simba was swift and decisive.
Suleiman Mwalimu brought Simba back into the game in the 14th minute before Anicet Oura added a second just six minutes later. Mwalimu then grabbed his second goal of the match to seal Simba’s third.
It was a must-win encounter for Simba, especially after failing to impress in their previous two matches.
In the second half, Steve Barker’s men delivered the performance fans had been waiting for, ensuring Simba progressed comfortably into the quarter-finals.
