The Msimbazi giants will be crowned champions if they get a draw against Coastal Union in their next league match
Simba SC are one point away from retaining the Mainland Premier League title following a 2-0 win against KMC at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium on Wednesday.
The Msimbazi giants went into the game seeking a win after their 1-0 defeat against rivals Yanga SC in their Kariakoo derby and it took them only two minutes to take a deserved lead after Chris Mugalu scored, and he added the second in the 44th minute.
Had Simba won the derby, they could have sealed the title then, but it was not the case and against KMC they needed a win to remain on course.
