Tanzania National team 'Taifa Stars' has managed to get one important point in Benin after forcing a 1-1 draw against Niger in the Afcon 2023 qualifier match
Tanzania took the lead in the first minute through George Mpole who finished off a Niger goalkeeper error after Saimon Msuva's shot
Niger returned to the game in the 26th minute equalizing through their dangerous striker Sosah
With Niger holding the game for a long time, Stars was dangerous through counter-attack as Kibu Denis came close to scoring the winning goal as his shot hit the sidebar after the Niger defender made a mistake when returning the ball to the goalkeeper
It is one key point for Tanzania towards the second match against Algeria which will be played on June 08 at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium
