Yanga's Communications and Information Manager, Ali Kamwe, has said that losing to Simba was not their intention, but the club has accepted the result as part of football.
Kamwe has urged Yanga supporters to give the technical bench time to address the weaknesses exposed in the match, noting that the team faces important fixtures in the coming days.
In a message posted on his social media account, Kamwe wrote:
"It has taken Kolo three years and five months to secure their first league victory against us. That's football, and fair play to them for a good 90 minutes.
We could not win every day or every derby. That is impossible, unless you learned about football through TikTok.
If you look at the league standings right now, you will see that there are still 23 matches to go. The league is still wide open, with plenty of points to fight for.
And the team at the top is that 'wooden bicycle.' It is now our responsibility as Yanga to pull together and return to the summit. It is absolutely possible. That is what we do every day, and there is no doubt about it.
For now, let us get ourselves ready for the CHAMPIONS LEAGUE. Give our technical bench and players time to return to the training ground and find answers to the questions we got wrong today.
On Saturday, we have a match in which we must fight for a place in the group stage. This is extremely important because if we get it wrong there, the pain will be far greater than what we are feeling today.
Always forward, my people. The one who laughs last at the end of the season will have the biggest reason to celebrate."
