Odey and Samatta win Belgian Super Cup with Genk

Stephen Odey and Mbwana Samatta won the Belgian Super Cup with Genk at the Luminus Arena on Saturday.

Sebastien Dewaest’s brace and strike from Dante Vanzeir saw the Blue-White claim a 3-0 victory over reigning Belgian Cup champions KV Mechelen.

Samatta returned in time to feature in the encounter, playing for 77 minutes after captaining Tanzania in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations where they exited in the group stage following their defeats to Senegal, Kenya and Algeria.

The trophy is the second for the 26-year-old after winning the 2018/19 Belgian First Division A diadem with the side, where he scored 23 goals leading to the title triumph.
