Mwanza and Dar es Salaam to host remaining Mainland league matches

The Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) has picked two regions – Mwanza and Dar es Salaam – to host Mainland Premier League matches when it resumes from June 1.

The Tanzanian top-flight has been given the green light to resume by President John Pombe Magufuli after it was halted in mid-March owing to the coronavirus pandemic.

On Thursday while addressing the nation, Magufuli confirmed all sporting activities, especially the league, can resume because the country is recording fewer cases of Covid-19.

Magufuli further moved to re-open the main international airport, giving teams in the league the chance to bring back their foreign players and coaches ahead of kick-off.
