Simba SC continued their dominance at Meja Jenerali Isamuhyo Stadium with a 2–0 victory over Coastal Union in an NBC Premier League match played on Thursday, April 2, 2026.
The Msimbazi Reds wrapped up the job early in the first half, scoring both goals within 45 minutes through Suleiman Mwalimu and Ismail Toure, who made the most of their chances to give Simba a comfortable lead before the break.
In the second half, Simba maintained control of the game and created several clear goal-scoring opportunities. However, a lack of composure in the final third denied them the chance to extend their lead, allowing Coastal Union to avoid a heavier defeat.
Striker Suleiman Mwalimu was one of the standout performers in the match, although he may feel he could have scored more, having missed several chances that could have earned him a hat-trick. Nevertheless, his goal sees him remain Simba’s top scorer with six goals this season.
The important win moves Simba back into second place in the league standings with 34 points, just four behind leaders Yanga SC. Simba also have a game in hand, giving them strong hope in the ongoing title race.
With this result, Simba continue to assert their strength at home, while Coastal Union will need to regroup and prepare for their upcoming fixtures.
