Yanga SC shocked by Ruvu Shooting in Tanzanian league opener

Yanga SC started their campaign to win the 2019/20 Tanzania Premier League on a low note after falling to Ruvu Shooting by a solitary goal on Wednesday.

Saadat Mohamed scored the lone goal to hand his team their first-ever win against Yanga since getting promoted to the top tier 13 years ago. The win spoilt the latter's party of advancing to the first round of the Caf Champions League after eliminating Township Rollers of Botswana last weekend.

The result is not going to impress coach Mwinyi Zahera who is preparing his charges against Zesco United of Zambia in the next round of the Caf Champions League on September 13.
