Dar es Salaam. It is now official that Simba SC will host the first leg of their CAF Confederation Cup semifinal clash against South Africa’s Stellenbosch FC at the New Amaan Complex in Zanzibar, instead of their traditional home ground, the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium in Dar es Salaam.
The high-stakes encounter is scheduled to kick off at 4pm. This change in venue follows a government directive to temporarily suspend all football activities at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium to allow for urgent renovations, particularly focused on upgrading the facility’s drainage system.
