TFF condemns violent incidents from Yanga SC fans against Simba SC fans

The Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) has come out strongly to condemn acts of hooligans associated with Young Africans (Yanga) SC, who took the law into their own hands to beat Simba SC fans who had attended their match against Mtibwa Sugar on Sunday.

The handful of Wekundu wa Msimbazi fans had their jerseys ripped by their opponents and were chased out of the stadium. It is for this reason the Federation has reacted stating it was an act that might affect the peace enjoyed in the game.

"TFF condemns the unsporting acts by a section of Young Africans fans of beating Simba SC fans during the [Tanzania Mainland League] match against Mtibwa Sugar played on September 27 at Jamhuri Stadium, Morogoro," the Federation said in a statement obtained by Goal.
