FT : Simba 1-1 Al Hilal

The international friendly match between Simba and Al Hilal ended with a 1-1 draw

Makapi Lilepo scored Al Hilal's goal in the sixth minute while Simba equalized through Habibu Kiyombo in the 81st minute

Simba head coach Robertinho Oliveira made big changes of squad in the first half, resting his key players

But the substitutions he made in the second half by bringing in Mohammed Hussein, Shomari Kapombe, Clatous Chama, Pape Ousmane Sakho and Mzamiru Yasin increased Simba's pace

Al Hilal were more dangerous through counter attacks if not for the goalkeeper Beno Kakolanya, they would probably score again

The game was of great importance for each team as it is the final preparation for the group stage of the Champions League next week

Simba will travel to Guinea to face Horoya Ac while Al Hilal go to South Africa to face Mamelodi Sundowns
