Young Africans (Yanga SC) squandered the best chance of moving second in the Mainland Premier League table after coming from down to secure a 2-2 draw against Namungo FC in a match played on Wednesday.
The Jangwani Street-based giants came into the match buoyed by Azam FC’s 1-0 defeat against Kagera Sugar and knew a win will see them move second on the 20-team league table.
However, heading into the fixture, Yanga were missing key players among them unsettled Ghanaian forward Bernard Morrison, injured captain Papy Tshishimbi and Lamine Moro, who was serving his last suspension having been sent off during the 1-1 draw against JKT Tanzania in Dodoma.
