Kagere strikes as Simba SC end Azam FC's unbeaten run

Simba SC have ended Azam FC's unbeaten run in the Vodacom Premier League (VPL) after a 1-0 win on Wednesday at National Stadium, Dar es Salaam.

Meddie Kagere scored the all-important goal for the Wekundu wa Msimbazi as they kept a 100% season start, while Azam suffered their first loss of the campaign.

After a goalless first-half, Kagere headed past Azam's goalkeeper Mwadini Ally in the 49th minute, when he rose high enough to meet Francis Kahata's accurate cross into the area.
