Yanga head coach Abdihamid Moalin has expressed confidence that his team is fully prepared for their NBC Premier League encounter against Mashujaa FC, which will be played on Saturday at Lake Tanganyika Stadium in Kigoma.
Speaking about the team's preparations, Moalin said the FIFA international break provided a valuable opportunity for training and recovery, and that the players have returned with high spirits, motivation, and a strong desire to secure victory.
The Yanga coach acknowledged the quality of Mashujaa FC but stressed that his side's objective in Kigoma is to collect all three points as they continue their pursuit of a fifth consecutive league title.
"First of all, preparations have gone very well ahead of tomorrow's match. We had a productive FIFA window that gave us enough time to prepare. I am pleased to see that my players are highly motivated and ready to return for the final stretch of the NBC Premier League, starting with tomorrow's game against Mashujaa FC."
"Mashujaa are a good team and we respect them greatly, just as we respect all our opponents. However, we are ready and we know exactly what we need to do. We know why we have come to Kigoma and we are here with a clear mission. Our focus right now is tomorrow's match, and we are committed to securing all three points."
"There are no easy matches in this league. Whether we are facing the team at the bottom of the table or one near the top, every game is a final for us. Our goal is to win a fifth league title, and every match is an important step toward achieving that objective."
"Whether we win by a large margin or a narrow one is not what matters most. The important thing is to get the victory and the three points. Our players are very experienced, but they are also humble. Despite everything being said outside the pitch, they have remained focused and continue to work hard every day. Some are chasing a fifth title, some a second, and others their first, but all of them are hungry to finish the season strongly," Moalin said.
