International referee from Kenya, Dickens Mimisa Nyagrowa, has officially been appointed to officiate the Muungano Cup final between Yanga and Simba, set to take place today at the New Amaan Complex in Zanzibar.
Nyagrowa will be assisted by assistant referees Ally Mbwana and Yusuph Shombe, both from Zanzibar, while Ishaka Mwalile from mainland Tanzania will serve as the fourth official.
At 33 years old, Nyagrowa is an experienced FIFA-accredited referee who has officiated in major African competitions, including the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) and the African Nations Championship (CHAN).
His appointment for this important final reflects the high level of trust placed in him by the competition organizers, as fans anticipate a fiercely contested match between traditional rivals Yanga and Simba.
The final is expected to be exciting and highly competitive, with attention not only on the players but also on the officiating team to ensure fairness on the pitch.
