AFCON TICKET: Beat Uganda get $5000, Tanzania PM tell players

In a bid to ensure they pick the qualifying ticket for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, the Tanzania government have promised its senior national team $5,000 to beat Uganda in today’s Africa  Cup of Nations decusive qualifier in Dare Salam.

Tanzania Prime Minister Kasim Malijawa Kasim visited the team’s camp on Saturday where he made the promise to motivate the players to go all out and realise their dream.

Uganda have already qualified for the tournament scheduled for Egypt in June leaving Tanzania, Lesotho and Cape Verde to battle for the second group ticket.

However a win for the Tanzania side handled by ex-Nigeria international, Emmanuel Amuneke would render the Lesotho, Cape Verde encounter meaningless.

Meanwhile Amuneke has called on fans to rally behind the team ahead of today’s encounter.
