The Tanzania Mainland Premier League for the 2023/2024 season has come to an end yesterday and saw Simba win the ticket to participate in the African Confederation Cup after finishing in third place with the number of goals exceeded by Azam who will join Yanga to participate in the African Champions League
This is the first time after six seasons that they have participated in the African Champions League, but now Simba will have to participate in the second largest tournament in Africa joining with Coastal Union to represent Tanzania in the tournament
Despite the 2-0 victory against JKT Tanzania in the last game, Benjamini Mkapa Stadium, the result was canceled by Azam FC's 2-0 victory against Geita at the Nyankumbu stadium in Geita region and booked the ticket participate in the African Champions League after 10 seasons have passed
The victory of those teams has made them all finish the season with 69 points but Azam benefiting from a good ratio of scoring and scoring goals
In yesterday's game, Simba got their goals through Saido Ntibazonkiza two minutes before the end of the match with a penalty kick, and Willy Onana, who entered the second half, scored the second goal in extra time
Mkoani Geita, Azam FC got their goals through Yelson Mandoza in the 58th minute and Feisal Salum 'Feitoto' in the 71st minute
Despite scoring one goal in yesterday's victory, Feitoto failed to win the golden boot for the best goal after being overtaken by Yanga's midfielder, Azizi Ki, who yesterday while playing against Tanzania Prisons at the Azam Complex Stadium, Chamazi, scored three goals and helping his team leave with a 4-1 victory
These goals have made Aziz Ki reach 21 goals, leaving Feitoto with two goals and adding to the joy of Yanga fans who earlier last week witnessed their team winning the Tanzania Mainland Premier League championship for the third time in a row
The competition for the award was intense and before yesterday's games all the players had 18 goals and so wait for the last games to know who will be the top goalscorer this season
The three goals scored by Aziz Ki make him reach two 'hat tricks' (three goals in one game) in the Premier League this season, preceded by the first one he scored in the game against Azam, on October 23, last year
After conceding a 2-0 defeat at home against Azam yesterday, Geita Gold joins Mtibwa Sugar in direct relegation after finishing in 15th place with 25 points which did not even help them to play 'Play Off'
