Yanga SC management has appealed the ban and fine imposed on their coach Mwinyi Zahera by the Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) last week.

The Congolese coach was fined and banned for three games by the federation after using what was termed as abusive language, following the team's 1-0 loss to Ruvu Shooting in league assignment.

"We have fined your [Yanga] coach Sh500, 000 and also banned him for three matches in accordance to article 41(9) which governs the game in Tanzania,” a statement written to Yanga from the TFF stated.
