Muhtasari
- DAR ES SALAAM: TWIGA Stars Head Coach Bakari Shime says injuries and poor fitness in his squad contributed to Tanzania’s 2-1 defeat by Ivory Coast, as their tournament campaign ended against one of the continent’s.
- Tuesday’s defeat ended Tanzania Women’s Cup of Nations campaign, as Ivory Coast finished the group stage unbeaten with seven points from three matches, while South Africa’s 1-0 win over Burkina Faso in the other Group B.
- Shime said the changes disrupted Tanzania’s preparations and made it difficult for the team to maintain the tactical plan they had worked on before the match.
- Tanzania had initially stuck to their game plan and Shime believed Ivory Coast would become less organised in the second half.
- Despite the defeat, Shime said the tournament had provided valuable experience for a younger generation of Tanzanian players, particularly after facing strong opposition such as South Africa and Ivory Coast.
