Despite his team losing the opening game of the Mpumalanga Premier's International Cup against Augsburg, Yanga Head Coach Miguel Gamondi has said he is satisfied with the level shown by his young men
Yanga lost 2-1 in a game that showed great quality in the second half
Gamondi has said that it was a great honor for Yanga to play with Augsburg, which participates in the German Premier League, and he believes that what they showed in that game has made every football fan in Africa happy
"We didn't play very well in the first half, there were mistakes here and there, but this is normal, especially if you consider that we only practiced for a week before this game, which is also our first in the pre-season"
"But let's also not forget that we played against Augsburg, a team from the German Premier League (Bundesliga), so it would not be easy for our players"
"In the second half we were better, we scored a goal and we also had chances in the last minutes to equalize"
"The result was not very important for us in this game. I am happy with how my players fought and did what we needed from them," said Gamondi
Yanga will play two more matches in South Africa before returning to Tanzania ready for Mwananchi week
