Yanga has not started well in the group stage of the CAF Champions League after accepting a 3-0 defeat from CR Belouizdad in a game played on July 05 1962 in Algeria
It was a game in which Yanga dominated but CR Belouizdad made the most of the chances they got to secure three important points at home
It was not an easy game, Belouizdad prepared well and used the advantage of being at home, there were times even the referees gave them an advantage in situations they did not deserve
The culture of African football is that you have to make good use of your home field, CR Belouizdad have made good use of their field to win
Now it is Yanga's turn to make good use of the home field in the next game against Al Ahly which will be played next Saturday at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium
It is necessary to make good use of the home ground, Belouizdad have shown Yanga that it should be really brutal within 90 minutes when playing at home to ensure that the three points remain
This start in the Champions League is no different from last season in the Confederations Cup. Yanga started with a 2-0 loss against US Monastir and later won the next four matches with one draw, the result of which sent them to the quarter finals and Wananchi managed to play in the final of the tournament.
It was not a good start for Coach Miguel Gamondi, but without a doubt this result has given him an education that he will use to do well in the next matches
