TFF's Karia denies 'cheap talk' alleging he favours Simba SC or Yanga SC

The official distanced himself from allegations that his administration has favourites

Tanzania Football Federation President Wallace Karia has dismissed allegations he has been favouring Simba SC over their archrivals Yanga SC.

Karia said he only has an affiliation with Coastal Union - now 16th with 33 points - and that there is nothing he can help them with to salvage the situation despite his TFF position.

"If it is about loving a team, maybe Coastal Union but it is something that you can openly say 'Yes, this is the team I support'. But the allegations that I always stand with Simba or that I hate Yanga are just baseless," Karia told Mwanaspoti.
