The historical champions of Tanzania, Yanga will go down to the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium to face Mamelodi Sundowns in the quarter-finals of the CAF Champions League
The hopes of Tanzanians remain in the hands of Yanga after their countrymen Simba fell to the nose yesterday by accepting a 1-0 defeat from Al Ahly
The match between Yanga and Mamelodi is the most talked about and is probably viewed as the best match in the quarter final stage
The type of play of those teams is similar, but Yanga's record in the Benjamin Mkapa stadium makes many believe today that they can do the unexpected by many football analysts in the country who have been giving Yanga a small chance to win.
But this is also a match that Yanga can use to show Africa the level they are at. It is believed that Mamelodi Sundowns is the best club in Africa at the moment
If Yanga can win against Mamelodi, it means they will show that they have reached the rank of the best team in Africa
Obviously it will not be an easy match, Mamelodi have distinguished themselves by being more dangerous when they play away than at home
They meet Yanga which also has a good record when playing at home, scoring eight goals at home and only one away in the group stage
The game is expected to be witnessed by thousands of fans as approximately 48,000 people will enter the Mzunguuko and Machungwa platforms for free
Good luck Yanga, good luck national champions...!
