Everton P-P Birmingham


Everton's Boxing Day match against Birmingham in the Premier League has been postponed.

"There are several miles of frozen pipes, many of which burst during the course of Christmas Day night," said an Everton statement on their website.
"Our stadium and safety teams worked round the clock.
"But due to the rapidly deteriorating conditions, and in the interests of safety and hygiene, we have reluctantly decided to postpone the game."
 
Man Utd 2 - 0 Sunderland

Berbatov plants a downward heard past keeper Gordon to open the scoring

Dimitar Berbatov scored twice as Manchester United eased past Sunderland to stay firmly in control of the Premier League title race.
The Bulgarian headed home Wayne Rooney's cross early on and United dominated the match from that moment.
Berbatov also hit the post with a drive and Anderson crashed a shot against the bar as United created chances at will.
After the break, Berbatov made it 2-0 with a deflected shot from just inside the box to wrap up a comfortable win.
With Arsenal and Chelsea meeting each other on Monday, league leaders United went into the game looking to increase the pressure on their London rivals by extending their points advantage over them.
That they did just that will have delighted boss Sir Alex Ferguson, who stated on Christmas Eve that the title race was a three-way battle between his side and those two teams from the capital.

Phelan praises Anderson display

Manchester City would argue they are also involved, having secured a Boxing Day win over Newcastle to move into second place, two points behind their neighbours - although they have played two games more.
But there can be little doubt that United hold the ascendancy at the moment as they swept aside a Sunderland team that somehow survived an opening salvo that could have put Ferguson's men way out of reach before half-time.
Berbatov - who had been restored to the starting line-up, along with Ryan Giggs - gave United the lead inside five minutes.
Giggs was instrumental in the build-up, bursting through the midfield before laying the ball off for Rooney, who crossed to the far post for Berbatov to dispatch.
Sunderland, who have kept nine clean sheets this season but were always likely to struggle without seven first-team regulars, had no chance to regroup.
An onslaught ensued, with Giggs and Rooney at the heart of it, but somehow United could not double their advantage.

Easy easy win and great display from Anderson again and nice brace from Berbs


Captain Negativity

Rooney went close with an exquisite chip that drifted just wide before Berbatov went even closer with a fierce effort that cannoned back off the post.
Anderson then cracked a drive against the bar, Rooney failed to properly connect with a shot from inside the box and Berbatov slammed an effort into the side netting.
As Sunderland clung on, keeper Craig Gordon did well to block a Giggs shot with his legs and later, Anderson fired wide before the Brazilian also wasted a chance when a poor touch robbed him off a shooting chance.
Straight after the interval Sunderland managed their first meaningful effort on goal when Asamoah Gyan blasted over from the angle.
It was not to be the start of a Sunderland comeback, however, as United hit back.
A brilliant block by Anton Ferdinand kept out Andersen's shot but shortly afterwards United got the goal their play had deserved.

Bruce applauds 'impressive' Man Utd

Andersen played a superb disguised pass to Berbatov and this time Anton Ferdinand was unlucky as the shot was deflected in off his body.
Berbatov looking for his hat-trick - and what would be his 15th goal of the season - continued to press and he tested Gordon with a smart volley on the turn after flicking the ball up for himself.
With 12 minutes remaining Sunderland managed to get a shot on target for the first time but United keeper Edwin van der Sar was easily equal to Boudewijn Zenden's effort.
The home side were happy to play possession football after that and closed out the game with ease - keeping plenty in reserve while sending out a clear signal of their intent to regain their title.

 
Sir Alex Ferguson sets Dimitar Berbatov 25-goal target

Wayne Rooney and Berbatov may be firing United towards the title


Manager Sir Alex Ferguson wants striker Dimitar Berbatov to target 25 goals for the season and help propel Manchester United to the Premier League title.
Berbatov scored both goals in Sunday's win over Sunderland to take his tally for the league campaign to 13 so far.
"His form has been terrific. If he can get us to 25 - and we need one more to get around that figure - then we will have a good chance," said Ferguson.
Berbatov was denied a hat-trick when he smashed a shot against the woodwork.
Ferguson added: "We are hitting good form, the football was fantastic. We could have scored five by half-time," said Ferguson, whose men lead the table by two points.
"Some of the interchanges and the combination play was very, very good."
United, still unbeaten this season, appear to be hitting form just at the right time after sealing their fifth consecutive league victory.
Manchester City are their closest rivals in second place, but have played two games more than their neighbours.

I didn't feel Rooney and Berbatov would ever make an effective partnership but I'm glad I got it wrong


Always United

The signs could be described as ominous for United's title rivals, with even Sunderland manager Steve Bruce admitting that United were far superior to his team.
"It could have been a beating for us," the Black Cats boss stated. "United were magnificent in the first half, some of their football was breathtaking.
"We had our backsides kicked in the first half but we somehow managed to hang in there and reach the interval only one goal down.
"Their second goal was unfortunate because it was a deflection, but we have to hold our hands up and say the best team won by a country mile."

Manchester United assistant boss Mike Phelan hails the contribution of midfielder Anderson in the 2-0 win over Sunderland.

Berbatov, who was restored to the line-up having been left out of United's 1-0 defeat of Arsenal, looked very sharp and Ferguson hinted the Bulgarian could be key to United's title chances.
"He knows there are times we like to play with one up front and he understands that we have to sometimes change things around. But his form has been terrific," said Ferguson.
The United manager also felt his side were able to play "in third gear" after their second goal - scored in the 57th minute - and said the players may have been thinking ahead to Tuesday's match against Birmingham.
"We were more economical in the second half," admitted Ferguson. "We want to be ready for Birmingham because they did not play on Sunday and will be fresh."
Ferguson added that Nani (hip) and Darren Fletcher (cold), who were left out of Sunday's squad, would recover in time to return for the trip to St Andrew's.
 
Sir Alex plays down Rooney drought




Updated Dec 27, 2010 3:47 AM ET


Sir Alex Ferguson insists he is not concerned at Wayne Rooney's continuing goal drought.
The Manchester United striker has still not scored for his club in open play since March and the barren run continued in today's 2-0 win over Sunderland at Old Trafford.


Instead it is forward partner Dimitar Berbatov grabbing the headlines and another double for the Bulgarian took his tally to 13, as well as extending United's unbeaten record to 17 games and consolidating their position on top of the table.
However, Ferguson is delighted with Rooney's overall contribution and has no fears for the England hit-man.
"Wayne had a couple of tries today," reflected the United boss.
"He was very unlucky with the chip and there were a couple of shots saved by the goalkeeper.
"He is getting there. The important thing is he is playing well. That is refreshing."
Rooney is making a positive contribution. It was his excellent chip that set Berbatov up for his fourth-minute opener, although, after blowing a succession of first-half chances, United's record signing required the assistance of a massive deflection off Anton Ferdinand to seal the points after the break.
"Dimitar could have scored four or five today," said Ferguson. "He had some terrific opportunities.
"I was disappointed with the score at half-time.
"We hit the bar and the post. Their keeper has made a couple of good saves and we played some really good football.
"It was exciting stuff but then we just seemed to go into third gear."
Part of the reason for that was the knowledge United's opponents on Tuesday, Birmingham, had their feet up following the postponement of their game at Everton.
Blues boss Alex McLeish took the opportunity to watch Ferguson's side in action, although he is set to be greeted with the presence of Nani at St Andrew's, the Portugal winger set to recover from the hip injury that kept him out of today's encounter.
Darren Fletcher was also sidelined with a heavy cold.

He too could come into contention though as Ferguson intends to make a couple of changes to his starting line-up.
"We have come into good form," he said.
"In the last few weeks we have played some very good stuff. We are getting that consistency, particularly in our defending.
"We are looking solid at the back. These are good signs for us. It is an important time to get that.
"Birmingham will be fresh. Going down there is always a difficult place to go to. They have always had a strong home record and are difficult to beat on their own ground.
"We are aware of that. I will make a couple of changes to freshen that part up. Hopefully we will get the result we want."
As someone who was part of the first United side that won the Premier League 18 years ago, Sunderland manager Steve Bruce can tell a decent team when he sees one.
And he doesn't buy into the argument that this Red Devils group are an inferior outfit.
"I have heard it said that United are not playing that well," he said.
"Well, they are unbeaten for six months, so that is not a bad statistic is it?
"They are top of the league, with games in hand, and history suggests they always get better in the second half of the season.
"Maybe we were a bit naive today. Sometimes you just have to hold your hands up and say you were well beaten.
"But I wouldn't bet against them, that's for sure."
 
Ferguson rules out Owen exit

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has told suitors Aston Villa there is no chance of Michael Owen leaving in the January window.
Reports have suggested Owen could be loaned out by United next month, with a number of clubs - including Villa - linked with the former Liverpool hitman.

TRANSFER SPECIAL

Keep up with all the biggest moves around the globe with our 2011 January transfer gallery.

Owen, who is back to fitness after a hamstring problem, is also coming to the end of his contract at Old Trafford, fuelling rumours United could offload him in January rather than let him leave for nothing in the summer.
However, Ferguson has dismissed the speculation and insists the 31-year-old is going nowhere, feeling he still has a lot to offer despite his injury problems.
"He is looking really good," Ferguson told the Mail on Sunday. "He has trained really well this week. People may have forgotten just what a good player Michael is.
"He's had a nightmare time with a bad hamstring injury but now he deserves a change of luck.
"If he can stay fit, I believe he has an important part to play for the club between now and the end of the season; there's no doubt about that. He still has a great engine.
"There has never been a problem with him since he came to United.
"He is great to have around. He conducts himself well and is a great example to the younger players.
"I know a few clubs have been thinking about him for a possible loan arrangement but it will not happen. He is definitely not going anywhere."

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is wary of a Chelsea backlash on Monday, despite recognising the Blues' self-belief has taken a big knock.

Carlo Ancelotti's side have dropped to fourth in the table following a run of five games without a win, offering the Gunners a glimmer of hope they can topple the champions.
But Wenger said: "Chelsea have gone through a period where results are a bit less good but that can happen to anyone in this league.
"We have seen recently that any team, when you think they are on the brink of breaking through, can have a hiccup. Maybe it's just the quality of the league.
"You never know whether it's the best time to play Chelsea. Every game is specific and a new start.
"They have a little bit less confidence than they had in October but we know that winning will be down to our performance.
"We know that on Monday we will play against a top team and we do not expect any weakness on their side.
"We want to put a top-level performance in at the Emirates and show we are masters at home."
Wenger believes Monday's clash at the Emirates Stadium will play a critical role in defining Arsenal's season.
The Gunners have already endured defeats at Stamford Bridge and Old Trafford this term and the Frenchman reckons their response to those setbacks will be key to their title aspirations.
They enter Monday's clash on the receiving end of five successive defeats in the fixture, leaking 13 goals in the process.
Wenger knows a precious victory over a title rival would give Arsenal's Christmas schedule the best possible start.

WHAT A YEAR!

Take a pictorial look back at an incredible year in soccer with the 2010 Year in Pictures gallery.

"Of course this is a must-win game," he said. "We have mixed feelings because we came out of both games against Chelsea and Manchester United this season thinking we could have won and that there wasn't a difference between the teams.
"We have a good opportunity to show that in the coming months and that our improvement is bigger than any other team because we are a very young side.
"It's about how well we respond to what happened to us at Chelsea and Manchester United that will be the decider for our season.
"We have played Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool away so our home form in these kind of games will be decisive.
"We are confident over taking Chelsea on at home. We face a big challenge.
"What we want is to produce an intelligent game full of dynamism. That is the only way we can win these big games."
Arsenal enter the Christmas period second in the table and even Wenger wonders at their ongoing challenge for the title.
 
David wants Silva-ware for City




Updated Dec 26, 2010 4:46 AM ET
David Silva has urged Manchester City to get over Monday night's blip against Everton and make sure they stay in the Premier League title race.
City would have celebrated Christmas Day on top of the table for the first time since 1929 had they beaten Everton on Monday, but went down 2-1 at Eastlands.

It took Silva a bit of time to adapt after his summer move from Valencia but he is starting to flourish and two City player of the month awards on the trot emphasise what a fans' favourite the Spain star has become.
"I have settled in but I owe a lot to my team-mates because they helped make the process a lot quicker," said Silva, whose side visit Newcastle tomorrow.
"The games in England are very competitive. So many sides can make life very hard for you. It is a real challenge.
"But we are going okay at the moment. Now we must continue so we are in the final shake-up."
Silva knows he could have avoided the snow and given himself Christmas off by staying in Spain - but feels life is much more interesting at Eastlands.
La Liga has shut down for a couple of weeks to give players and fans a break, and an opportunity to enjoy the festivities.
Not so over here, where Silva is about to experience the usual crush of four games in just over a week, which will do so much to shape the season as a whole.
But when the Spain star looks at the comparative league tables - Barcelona and Real Madrid streaking clear back home compared to the jostling for top spot in England - he knows where he would rather be.
"Barcelona and Real Madrid are going well and have built up quite a lead," Silva told the club's website.
"In England it is far more hard fought. You could have any number of teams getting up there near the top.
"That makes for a more entertaining and enjoyable league."
Monday's defeat to Everton, in freezing temperatures, has led to accusations that the Blues' expensively-assembled, cosmopolitan band, only show their best form in milder weather.

WHAT A YEAR!




 

Mtanzania kucheza na Tiger Woods Dubai?


Imeandikwa na Mwandishi Wetu; Tarehe: 26th December 2010 @ 23:55


MCHEZAJI mmoja wa ridhaa atakayebahatika atacheza na Tiger Woods kwenye michuano ya pro am (wachezaji wa kulipwa na wa ridhaa) ambayo itafanyika kabla ya Dubai Desert Classic Februari mwakani.

Woods, ambaye atarejea kwenye michuano ya European Tour baada ya kuwa nje miaka miwili amekubali kucheza pro am, lakini wachezaji wa ridhaa wana nafasi ya kukutana na mchezaji anayeshika nafasi ya pili kwenye msimamo wa ubora duniani Woods.

Kutokana na utaratibu wa Dubai, ambao mtu anaweza kujiandikisha bila malipo kwenye mtandao mchezaji yeyote anaweza kupata nafasi ya kucheza na Woods na hivyo wachezaji wa ridhaa wa Tanzania pia wana nafasi ya kuingia kwenye kinyang'anyiro hicho.

Kila mchezaji duniani ambaye ana handicap (kiwango cha ubora) inayotambulika anaweza kujiandikisha kupitia mtandao wa golf in DUBAi na mshindi atapatikana wiki mbili kabla ya michuano itakayofanyika kwenye viwanja vya gofu vya Emirate Dunai kwa mujibu wa taarifa kutoka Dubai.

Kwa upande wa wanaume wanaotakiwa kujiandikisha ni wenye handicap 18 na kushuka wakati kwa wanawake ni kuanzia handicap 26 kushuka.

Lengo la michuano hiyo ni kuinua gofu Dubai kupitia wachezaji nyota kama Woods baada ya kunakosa msisimko.

"Lengo la kutengeneza ratiba kupitia mtandao ni kuhamasisha wachezaji wa ridhaa kushiriki," alisema Mohamed Juma Buamaim, makamu mwenyekiti na mtendaji mkuu wa kampuni ya gofu Dubai ambayo inaandaa michuano.

"Kucheza na Tiger ni ndoto ya kila mmoja," alisema. "Nina hakika mchezaji mwenye bahati wa kiume au wa kike atajifunza baadhi ya vitu kwa kumuangalia wakati wa kucheza karibu."

Woods alishinda taji la Desert Classic mwaka 2006 na 2008 na hajawahi kushika chini ya nafasi ya tano tangu mwaka 2001.

Mwaka 2009 alikosa michuano kutokana na kusumbuliwa na goti na mwaka huu alikosa kutokana na kashfa iliyofunika maisha yake binafs

Baadhi ya watoto wanaolelewa katika kituo cha watoto yatima cha Msongola Orphanage Trust Fund kilichopo Mvuti, Ilala, Dar es Salaam wakipokea msaada wa vyakula na vitu mbalimbali vyenye thamani ya zaidi ya Sh milioni 2 kutoka kwa Vodacom Miss Tanzania, Genevieve Emmanuel kupitia kampeni ya &#8216;Share & Care' wakati wa Sikukuu ya Krismasi kwenye kituo hicho. (Na Mpigapicha Wetu).

KATIKA kusherehekea Sikukuu ya Krismasi mrembo wa Vodacom Miss Tanzania 2010, Genevieve Emmanuel, ameitumia siku hiyo kwa kula na kutoa msaada wa vyakula kwa watoto yatima wa kituo cha Msongola Orphanage Trust Fund kilichopo Mvuti, Ilala, Dar es Salaam.

Akiambatana na warembo wengine akiwemo Alice Lushiku, Salma Mwakalukwa ambaye ni balozi wa utalii nchini na Anna Peter, Genevieve aligawa mchele, maharagwe, sabuni, chumvi, sukari, unga, mafuta ya kula na maji vyote vikiwa na thamani ya zaidi ya Sh milioni 2.

Akizungumza baada ya kula chakula na kucheza na watoto hao, mrembo huyo wa Tanzania alimpongeza Mwenyekiti wa kituo hicho Chantal Bwani kwa kujitolea eneo lake kwa ajili ya kujenga na kuwalea watoto yatima takribani 30.

Genevieve alisema wapo watu wenye uwezo mkubwa wa kifedha lakini bado hawajaonesha moyo wa kumlea hata mtoto mmoja tofauti na Bwani ambaye amejitolea kuwalea na kuwasomesha watoto hao kupitia misaada kutoka kwa wahisani mbalimbali.

"Nimefurahi kwa jinsi watoto walivyotupokea hali inaonesha wanajisikia faraja kama wapo kwa wazazi wao. Kutokana na hilo naahidi kurudi tena Msongola Orphanage ili kutoa misaada mingine vikiwemo vifaa vya kusomea," alisema mrembo huyo.

Akisoma risala kwa niaba ya wenzake, yatima Happiness Saimon anayesoma kidato cha kwanza katika shule ya sekondari ya Msongola alisema kituo chao licha ya kukabiliwa na matatizo mengi, changamoto kubwa wanayoikabili ni ukosefu wa choo bora, eneo la kulia chakula na kituo kutokuwa na uzio, jambo linalohatarisha usalama wao.

Kwa upande wake Bwani aliishukuru Vodacom Tanzania kupitia kwa Genevieve kutokana na kukipa kipaumbele kituo chao kilichopo kilometa 100 kutoka jijini hivyo, kuahidi kuendelea kutoa huduma bora kwa yatima hao ili waweze kufikia malengo yao kimaisha.

Aidha mtaalamu wa masuala ya habari wa kampuni hiyo, Matina Nkurlu alisema msaada walioutoa ni muendelezo wa kampeni yao ya &#8216;Share & Care' inayolenga kuzifikia jamii zenye mahitaji ili kuweza kusherehekea vema sikukuu ikiwemo Krismasi na Mwaka Mpya 2011.

"Leo kupitia Vodacom Miss Tanzania tumekula chakula cha mchana na kukabidhi vyakula mbalimbali kwa watoto hawa ili nao wajisikie wapo ndani ya familia kama watoto wengine na si kama yatima, tunaahidi kuendelea kukisaidia kituo hiki kuendana na mahitaji kama tunavyofanya sasa," alisema Nkurlu.
 
Kanumba, Ray, Uwoya waililia serikali

Imeandikwa na Evance Ng'ingo; Tarehe: 26th December 2010 @ 23:40

WAIGIZAJI nyota nchini ambao walikuwa Rwanda, Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Kongo na Burundi kuzindua filamu ya &#8216;Offside Trick' wameitaka serikali na wadau wa sanaa kujifunza kutokana na ziara yao hiyo.

Wasanii hao Steven Kanumba, Vicent Kigosi &#8216;Ray', Rehema Chagula, Aunt Ezekiel na Irene Uwoya ambao wamemaliza ziara katika nchi hizo hivi karibuni iliyokuwa na lengo la kuitangaza filamu hiyo na kufungua duka la mauzo ya filamu la Steps.

Akizungumza na gazeti hili kwa niaba ya wenzake mwishoni mwa wiki iliyopita, Kanumba alisema kuwa walipata mapokezi makubwa katika nchi hizo na hivyo kuitaka serikali itafakari mapokezi hayo na wafikirie jinsi sanaa inavyoweza kuitangaza nchi.

Alisema kuwa mapokezi yao yanatoa taswira kuwa wasanii wa filamu Tanzania wanapendwa katika nchi hizo, lakini inayotokana na juhudi binafsi ambazo zinafanywa na wasanii wenyewe bila mchango wa serikali.

Alieleza kuwa wakiwa katika nchi hizo wapenzi wa filamu walikuwa wakilala nje ya hoteli waliyofikia kwa lengo la kutaka kuwaona na kuwasalimia.

Kanumba alisema hali hiyo inaashiria kuwa fani ya filamu Tanzania ipo juu na wanaweza kuteka soko katika nchi hizo, hatua ambayo serikali inatakiwa kuiunga mkono kwa kuwasaidia zaidi.

"Mimi naona kuwa kupitia sisi hata serikali inaweza kufanya makubwa na sio kuwatazama wasanii wa muziki wa kizazi kipya pekee, pia kupitia sisi tunaweza hata kudumisha mikakati mbalimbali ya serikali kwa mfano kuhamasisha suala la Muungano na hata kudumisha amani, ukizingatia nchi hizo hazina usalama wa uhakika," alisema.

Akizungumzia Tamasha la Kimataifa la Filamu litakalofanyika Zanzibar ambapo alisema kuwa ana imani kuwa filamu zake za &#8216;Black Sunday' na &#8216;Pay Back' alizotengeneza kupitia kampuni ya Pilipili Entertainment zitaingia.

Alisema kuwa kwa mwaka wa 2011 amejipanga kuhakikisha kuwa anafanya kazi kisasa zaidi na kuteka soko la Afrika Mashariki na Kati na Afrika kwa ujumla.

Msanii huyo alisema kuwa matamasha kama ZIFF na ziara za nje ya nchi kwa pamoja vimemsaidia kumtangaza zaidi na kumweka karibu na wapenzi wa kazi zake. Kanumba ni miongoni mwa wasanii wanaoitangaza Tanzania nje ya mipaka na kupata wapenzi wengi.
 
Mechi la Liverpool na Everton zaahirishwa Monday, 27 December 2010 09:32

MECHI mbili za Ligi Kuu ya England kati ya Blackpool na Liverpol na Everton dhidi ya Birmigham zimeahirishwa kwa sababu ya barafu kuwa nyingi na baridi kali iliyopo eneo la Kaskazini mwa England.

Mechi kati ya Liverpool dhidi ya Blackpool ilibidi iahirishwe mpaka Januari 12 kwa sababu uwanja wa Blackpool wa Bloomfield Road umejaa barafu.

Uwanja wa Bloomfield ni uwanja pekee unaotumiwa kwenye Ligi Kuu ya England ambao hauna vifaa vya kutoa hali ya joto kutoka chini ya ardhi.

Mechi ya Everton dhidi ya Birmigham iliahirishwa kwa sababu bomba za kutoa hali ya joto kwenye uwanja wa Goodison Park kupasuka juzi usiku.

Hata hivyo jana ilichezwa mechi ya Ligi Kuu England,ambapo West Ham iliichapa Fulham mabao 3-1.

SIMBA jana iliifanyia kweli AFC Leopard ya Kenya baada ya kuichapa mabao 2-0 katika mechi
ya kimataifa ya kirafiki iliyochezwa kwenye Uwanja wa Uhuru Dar es Salaam.

Mabao ya Simba yalifungwa na Mbwana Samatta na Ali Ahmed &#8216;Shiboli'.

Wafungaji walipishana dakika moja, kuandika mabao hayo katika mechi ambayo Simba ilitawala sahemu kubwa ya mchezo.

Samatta ndiye aliyekuwa wa kwanza kuandika bao la kwanza katika dakika tano baada ya kuunganisha vyema pasi ya Salum Azizi kabla ya kuujaza mpira wavuni.

Shiboli alifunga bao la pili dakika ya sita baada ya kuuwahi mpira uliotemwa na kipa wa AFC Trema Barnabas kufuatia shuti kali la Abdulhali Humoud.

Aidha, AFC walijaribu kufurukuta katika dakika za mwanzo za kipindi cha pili lakini hawakufanikiwa kupata bao.

Kocha wa Simba Patrick Phiri jana alichezesha karibu vikosi viwili ili kutoa mazoezi zaidi kwa vijana wake.

Kikosi cha kwanza walicheza Juka Kaseja, Salum Kanoni, Juma Jabu, Juma Nyosso, Jerry Santo, Nicodemus Nyagawa, Salum Azizi, Abdulhalim Humoud, Ali Ahmed &#8216;Shiboli' Mbwana
Samatta na Shija Mkina.

Kipindi cha pili alitoka Kanoni, Santo, Ngagawa, Humoud, Shiboli, Samatta, na Mkina na nafasi zao kuchukuliwa na Haruna Shamte, Hilary Echesa, Mohamed Banka, Omar Gumbo, Kelvin
Chale, Meshack Abel na Mussa Hassan Mgosi.

Simba ipo kwenye maandalizi ya kuanza mzunguko wa pili wa Ligi Kuu unaotarajiwa kuanza Januari 15.

Timu hiyo ndio bingwa mtetezi na inaongoza msimamo ikiwa na pointi 27, Yanga inashika nafasi ya pili kwa kuwa na pointi 25 na Azam ni ya tatu kwa kuwa na pointi 20.

Simba pia inajiandaa na michuano ya Klabu Bingwa Afrika inayotarajiwa kuanza mwishoni mwa Januari na itaanza kampeni hizo dhidi ya Elan de Mitsoudje ya Comoro katia hatua ya awali na ikivuka itamenyana na bingwa mtetezi TP Mazembe katika raundi ya kwanza.

Kwa mujibu wa ratiba, AFC Leopard leo ilikuwa icheze na Yanga, lakini mechi hiyo ina hatihati kutokana na wachezaji wa Yanga kuwa katika mgomo.
 

TFF yamhoji Juma Kaseja


Imeandikwa na Mwandishi Wetu; Tarehe: 26th December 2010 @ 11:28

KAMATI ya nidhamu ya Shirikisho la Soka Tanzania (TFF) juzi ilimhoji kipa wa Simba Juma
Kaseja kuhusiana na sakata la kudaiwa kutompa mkono Mkuu wa Mkoa wa Mwanza Abbas
Kandoro wakati timu yake ilipocheza na Yanga Oktoba mwaka huu.

Kamati ya Mashindano ya Shirikisho hilo ilimuadhibu Kaseja kutocheza mechi tatu kwa madai kuwa kipa huyo hakumpa mkono Kandoro katika mechi iliyochezwa kwenye Uwanja wa CCM Kirumba Mwanza.

Taarifa ambazo hazikuwa za kweli kwani gazeti hili lilichapisha picha ya Kaseja akipeana mkono na Kondoro.

Na siku chache baada ya picha hiyo kutoka gazetini, Kaimu Katibu Mkuu wa TFF Sunday
Kayuni akasema kwamba adhabu ilikosewa na kwamba Kaseja aliadhibiwa kwa kutowapa
mkono wachezaji wa Yanga.

Kitendo hicho kilifanya uongozi wa Simba kukata rufaa kwenye Kamati ya Nidhamu ili kudai haki kwa mchezaji wake.

Habari zilizopatikana TFF juzi jioni zilisema kuwa Kaseja aliitwa kuhojiwa juu ya tukio hilo na kwamba ukweli ni upi kati ya madai hayo mawili yaliyozungumzwa na Kayuni.

Tayari Kaseja alishakosa mechi moja ya mzunguko wa kwanza na endapo rufani yake itakwama TFF kuna hatihati akakosa mechi mbili za mwanzo za mzunguko wa pili unaotarajiwa
kuanza Januari 15.

Imeandikwa na Beda Msimbe; Tarehe: 26th December 2010 @ 11:18

MWANAMUZIKI mkongwe Rehani Juma amefariki dunia usiku wa kuamkia juzi akiwa anapatiwa matibabu Hospitali ya Mkoa ya Kitete, Tabora.

Taarifa kutoka jamaa wa karibu wa marehemu, Athumani Rehani zinasema kuwa mwanamuziki
huyo ambaye aliwika enzi za miaka ya 70 hadi 90 alifariki dunia baada ya kuugua kwa muda mfupi.

Athumani alisema kwamba mwanamuziki huyo alikufa katika Hospitali ya Kitete Tabora ambako alikimbizwa kwa matibabu siku tatu kabla ya kifo chake.

Kwa mujibu wa taarifa hizo mwanamuziki huyo ambaye alitamba na kibao cha Jullie kilichopigwa na bendi ya Washirika (Watunjatanjata) alizikwa juzi hiyo hiyo kwao Tabora katika maeneo ya Chemichem, karibu na Shule ya Sekondari ya Milambo.

Rehani ambaye anatoka katika familia ya wanamuziki kabla ya umauti wake alikuwa akiendelea
na shughuli za muziki mjini Tabora akipiga rythim na solo katika bendi ya Tabora Sound Wanasensema Malunde.

Rehani ambaye ni mdogo wa marehemu Khalfan Juma aliyekuwa anapiga gitaa la besi katika Bendi ya Western kwa muda mrefu kabla hajajiunga na Tabora Jazz, pia alishawahi kupigia Paselepa na akina marehemu Msafiri Haroub ambao wote wametoka Tabora.

Tabora Sound Sensema Malunde inaundwa na wanamuziki wengi waliofanyia kazi katika Bendi ya Tabora Jazz na kwa sasa inaongozwa na Madaraka Moris maarufu kama Baba Kiwembe ambaye pia alikuwa Munisa Ndesa, na Watunjatanjata.

Tabora Sound inamilikiwa na mwanamuziki mkongwe aliyekuwa Tabora Jazz iliyotamba katika miaka 1970 Salum Ruzira ambaye alikuwa anapiga besi kama anapiga ngoma, na kazi yake hiyo inajidhihirisha zaidi kwenye wimbo wa Dada Lemmy.
 

Yanga haijapata maombi ya kununuliwa Babi

Imeandikwa na Evance Ng'ingo; Tarehe: 26th December 2010 @ 11:18


KLABU ya Yanga imesema kuwa bado haijapata maombi rasmi kutoka klabu ya Tang Long ya Vietnam ya kumtaka mchezaji Abdi Kasim &#8216;Babi' kwenda kuchezea klabu hiyo.

Akizungumza na HABARILEO Ofisa Habari wa Yanga Louis Sendeu alisema kuwa kama mchezaji huyo ameiridhisha timu hiyo ya Vietnam ingetakiwa timu hiyo kuiandikia barua Yanga kuonesha nia ya kumsajili na kuruhusu taratibu za kawaida kufuatwa.

Alisema kuwa klabu yake haiwezi kumzuia mchezaji huyo kuchezea timu hiyo kwa kuwa ilimuunga mkono katika kumruhusu kwenda kushiriki mazoezi ya majaribio.

Sendeu alifafanua kuwa Yanga inapenda kuona wachezaji wake wakichezea klabu nyingine kwa ajili ya kujipatia maslahi hivyo taarifa iliyotolewa kuwa klabu hiyo inachelewesha kuuzwa kwa
Babi si za kweli.

Pia alifafanua kuwa hakuna klabu yoyote ya nje ya nchi ambayo kwa sasa imeonesha nia ya kununua mchezaji kutoka Yanga.

" Sisi kama kuna kitu tunachothamini kwa maendeleo ya klabu hii ni kuona wachezaji wetu wakipata soko nje ya nchi hivyo utaratibu wetu siku zote ni kuwaruhusu kwenda katika majaribio na kama kuna klabu zinawataka sisi tupo tayari kuwauza na hatuna hiyana katika hilo." alisema Sendeu.

Imeandikwa na Mwandishi Wetu; Tarehe: 26th December 2010 @ 11:18


MSHAMBULIAJI Saidi Maulidi &#8216;SMG' amesema amefurahishwa kuitwa kwenye timu ya Taifa, Taifa Stars na kuahidi ataitumikia kwa moyo wake wote.

Aidha mshambuliaji huyo ameomba ushirikiano kwa mashabiki na wachezaji wenzake, kwani yeye peke yake hawezi kuipatia ushindi Stars.

Kocha Msaidizi wa Stars Silvestre Marsh juzi alitangaza kikosi cha wachezaji 23 wa timu hiyo kitakachokwenda Misri kwa ajili ya michuano ya Mto Nile.

Akizungumza na gazeti hili kwa njia ya simu jana, SMG ambaye anacheza soka ya kulipwa Angola alisema amefurahi na alikuwa akitamani kuichezea timu hiyo kwa muda mrefu.

"Mara ya mwisho mimi kuichezea Stars ilikuwa katika mechi dhidi ya Msumbiji ya kuwania
fainali za Kombe la Mataifa Afrika zilizofanyika Ghana mwaka 2008, tulifungwa bao 1-0 kwenye Uwanja wa Taifa, tangu wakati huo sijagusa tena mpira kwenye ardhi ya Tanzania," alisema.

"Kwa hiyo Saidi kama Saidi peke yangu si kwamba ndio naweza sana, hapana ushirikiano
unahitajika kwa mashabiki wote na wachezaji wenyewe kwa wenyewe pia, tupeane ushirikiano tufanye vizuri kwenye mashindano hayo,"alisema.

Mbali na SMG, Marsh pia amemwita Athumani Machuppa anayecheza soka ya kulipwa Sweden.

Pia amewaita Jerryson Tegete wa Yanga mchezaji mpya wa Simba Ally Ahmed &#8216;Shiboli' na
mchezaji wa Kagera Sugar Godfrey Taita.

Tegete aliachwa takribani mara mbili na Kocha Mkuu wa Stars Jan Poulsen. Michuano ya
Mto Nile inatarajiwa kuanza kutimua vumbi Cairo, Misri Januari 5 na Stars itaingia kambini kesho kabla ya kuondoka Januari 2.

Timu hiyo itakuwa kambini chini ya Marsh na kocha wa makipa Juma Pondamali na Kocha Mkuu Poulsen ambaye yuko nyumbani kwao Denmark kwa mapumziko ya sikukuu za mwisho wa mwaka ataungana nayo Cairo, Januari 3.

Mbali na Tanzania, nchi nyingine zinazoshiriki katika michuano hiyo inayoshirikisha nchi zilizo Ukanda wa Ziwa Victoria na Mto Nile ni Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Kongo, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Sudan na wenyeji Misri.

Lengo la michuano hiyo ni kuhamasisha kutunza vyanzo vya maji kwa ajili ya vizazi vijavyo.

Kwa mujibu wa ratiba, Stars itaanza kufungua dimba la michuano hiyo dhidi ya wenyeji Misri Januari 5 saa moja jioni, kabla ya mechi hiyo Kenya itacheza na Sudan saa kumi jioni.

"Atakayeshinda siku hiyo ameshinda kihalali na atakayepigwa atapigwa kihalali, kwani kanuni na taratibu za mchezo huo zitafuatwa na waamuzi hao wataingia ulingoni kutoa maamuzi wakiwa wameiva na wako kamili bila upendeleo,"alisema Champion.
