Tanzanian side Simba SC have overthrown RS Berkane , by one goal to nil in the group D games of the TotalEnergies CAF Champions League at the National Stadium in Dar es Salaam. Ousmane Sakho scored the lone goal a minute to half-time to hand Simba a precious win, making up after losing the first leg 2-0 in Berkane a week ago.
Simba were determined to get a victory at all cost, with full backing of their fans, who had invaded the national stadium. They finally got the lead in the 44th minute through some individual skill from Sakho.
Simba continue dominating and came close in the 61 st minute when substitute Bernard Morrison struck the cross bar with a ferocious shot from inside the box.
Berkane thought they had equalized with eight minutes from time Hamza Regragui headed in from a free-kick, but his actions were cut short with the first assistant referee waving his flag for offside.
With the three points, Simba are on seven points top of the group while Berkane are on six points, two ahead of Union Sportive Gendarmerie.
