Bahati: Azam FC were better side than Simba SC in draw

Azam FC assistant coach Vivier Bahati has stated his team deserved to win their Mainland Premier League match against Simba SC on Sunday.

The ‘Ice Cream Makers’ produced a great comeback in the second half to deny the Msimbazi giants maximum points as they settled for a 2-2 draw in the match played at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium in Dar es Salaam.

Simba were the first to score in the 27th minute through Meddie Kagere and minutes later, they squandered a penalty after Clatous Chama saw his weak effort saved by Ugandan keeper Mathias Kigonya.
