Tanzania Mainland champions Yanga have kicked off their CAF Champions League (CAFCL) group-stage campaign with a 1–0 victory over AS FAR in a match played at the New Amaan Complex.
A 59th-minute goal from Prince Dube secured the crucial three points for Yanga, placing them at the top of Group B.
The goal came from a long pass by Mudathir Yahya, played behind the AS FAR defenders. Dube made the most of it, outpacing the defenders before slotting the ball into the back of the net.
Yanga started the match with high intensity and could have scored earlier were it not for the excellent saves made by the AS FAR goalkeeper, who stopped at least three dangerous attempts.
These are three vital home points as Yanga begin their mission to secure a quarterfinal spot.
Much was said before the match, but once again, Yanga have proved they are ready to face anyone.
Bravooooooo Wananchiiii....!
