Kariakoo Derby: Simba SC and Yanga SC missed combined TSh780 million after postponement

The clash pitting Tanzania's most successful sides was not played as the rescheduling of the kick-off time cause disagreements

The Simba SC and Yanga SC players missed out on millions of shillings promised after the Kariakoo Derby was postponed on May 8.

According to Mwanaspoti, Wekundu wa Msimbazi - who were the hosts - failed to pocket TSh240 million while Timu ya Wananchi did not go home with Tsh540 million as the match was not played in the end.

The match was called off when Yanga opposed the move to have the game be played at 19:00 EAT.
