Few days to the return leg of the CAF Confederation Cup Quarter-final match between Simba FC and Kaizer Chiefs, Simba FC Spokesman Haji Manara says the match is a do or die affair, BSNSports.com.ng reports.
De La Boss as called by Simba fans spoke animatedly of how his side will handle the game which they need to overturn a four nil deficit suffered in the first leg on Saturday.
Manara explains the Tanzanian base team's approach to the game during the press conference on Wednesday.
"Our slogan will be OUR OR THEIR; Do or die season 2."
"It's a game of death and recovery, we want the semi-finals of the Champions League." He said.
He believes the Red Lions will conquer their opponents
"We have a lot of respect for Kaizer Chiefs, they are a good team but we have the ability to turn the tide. "Manara said
He says a lot have been put in place to ensure the team's success come Saturday.
"As a leadership we are prepared for Saturday's game. We believe the players will receive good instructions from the coaches and we will win.
The official guest will be the new Regional Commissioner of Dar es Salaam, Amos Makala. We invite you, our brother Makala, to lead us to the Lions' joy."
In 1979, Simba overturned a 4-0 deficit against Zambian club Mufulira Wanderers and it remains the biggest comeback in the history of the Caf Champions League as they won 5-0 in the second-leg clash at home.
