Carlinhos: Yanga SC winger to miss Mapinduzi Cup after injury setback

Young Africans (Yanga SC) have confirmed winger Carlos Carlinhos has returned to Dar es Salaam and will not play any part in the Mapinduzi Cup tournament in Zanzibar.

The Angolan star was keen to use the one-week tournament to revive his career at the club after a rather poor start which saw him miss a couple of Mainland Premier League matches in the first round.

Despite starting well by scoring two goals and assisting two, Carlinhos picked an injury that saw him miss a number of matches including the derby against rivals Simba SC which ended in a 1-1 draw.
