The attention of Yanga SC fans will turn to today’s 2027 AFCON qualifier between Comoros and Namibia, with two of the club’s stars, Housseine Zakouani and Peter Shalulile, part of the respective national team camps ahead of the match at Maluzini Stadium in Moroni.
Zakouani enters the match as part of the Comoros squad, while Shalulile has been called up by Namibia for his country’s campaign towards the 2027 AFCON finals. Their meeting gives Yanga fans a unique opportunity to watch two players they regularly follow at Jangwani face each other on the international stage.
Comoros will be looking for a result that would strengthen their position in the race for qualification, while Namibia will be aiming to maintain their positive start after opening their campaign with a victory. The match is therefore expected to be competitive, given the importance of the points for both sides.
For Yanga, the match will also provide an opportunity for supporters to follow the performances of their stars on international duty. However, whether Zakouani and Shalulile will feature in the starting line-ups will depend on the decisions of their respective coaches before kick-off.
