The four-time champions needed a first-half strike to make it to the quarter-finals of the competition
Yanga SC coach Luc Eymael states his team was lucky to eliminate minnows Gwambina FC from the FA Cup.
Timu ya Wananchi scored the only goal of the match in the 45th minute through Haruna Niyonzima as Gwambina had remained firm at the back for most of the match. The Belgian tactician says the opponents gave their best and gave his team a tough time.
"Gwambina is a strong team with good players who made it tough for us," Eymael told reporters after the match.
