Simba defeated Pamba Jiji 2:1 in the Ligi Kuu Bara regular season on Tuesday evening. The visitors moved up to second place in the table, while the hosts remain rooted to the bottom with just a single point from four matches. The result extended Simba's unbeaten run and punctured whatever hopes Pamba Jiji might have held for improvement.
C. Chama opened the scoring in the nineteenth minute for the away side, and A. A. Oura doubled the advantage not long after in the thirty-first. Pamba Jiji saw a player dismissed in the forty-fourth minute, and the game tilted further away from them. By then the hosts were already behind and had fewer bodies to work with.
Simba kept their composure despite the red card and added a third goal in the seventy-third minute. Pamba Jiji had one shot on target and one off, while the visitors managed two on target and four off. The statistics showed a match where the visitors created more chances but didn't always convert them.
Possession sat at 41 per cent for Pamba Jiji and 59 for Simba, though the visitors could not afford to take their foot off the pedal. They had six corners to the hosts' zero, and the yellow cards accumulated on both sides. The away team took one booking while the home side picked up four.
Simba now sit on fifteen points from five games, still clear at the top of the table. Pamba Jiji remain in fourteenth place with one point after four matches, and the gap between them and the rest is growing. The result means the visitors continue to build momentum while the hosts face a difficult run ahead.
