Simba extended their winning run in the NBC Premier League today with an important 2-1 victory over Pamba Jiji at CCM Kirumba Stadium.
First-half goals from Clatous Chama and Anicet Oura put Simba two goals ahead at the break.
Libasse Gueye continued to prove that he is an X-factor, playing a role in both goals.
His free-kick in the 18th minute beat Pamba Jiji goalkeeper Erick Johora and found Chama, who made no mistake as he fired Simba into the lead.
In the 30th minute, Gueye delivered a cross from the right that found Anicet Oura, who headed the ball into the net for Simba’s second goal.
For the second consecutive match, Simba suffered a setback after Ibrahim Jabaar was sent off for elbowing a Pamba Jiji player.
Simba adopted a more cautious approach in the second half following the red card. Pamba Jiji pulled one goal back through a penalty in the 73rd minute.
The victory is an important one for Simba, as the Msimbazi Reds move to the top of the league standings.
