Simba SC fan Michael Filbert has walked for 15 days from Kigoma to Dar es Salaam to ensure he attends the Tanzania Mainland League's Kariakoo Derby against Yanga SC.

The derby is scheduled for July 3 and Wekundu wa Msimbazi will be looking to collect maximum points against their bitter rivals who have struggled to topple them in recent years.
