Nzengeli hits two as Young Africans beat Singida Big Stars

DAR ES SALAAM: Young Africans have opened up a three-point gap at the summit of the Premier League table after a 2-0 win over Singida Big Stars.

The eye-catching game at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium in Dar es Salaam on Friday evening has witnessed Maxi Nzengeli netting a brace.

After several hits and misses in the first half, goal gates opened up for Yanga in the 30th minute when Nzengeli nodded in.

Eight minutes later, he completed a brace after a long range volley that exposed Singida Big Stars goalie Benedict Haule.

At 2-0, the hosts dictated the match until the whistle to break up the game for half-time sounded.

Following the outcome, Yanga have now claimed 18 points from seven matches.

Up next, Yanga face Simba in a traditional derby clash on November 5th at the 60,000-capacity arena.
