Former TS Galaxy coach Sead Ramovic suffered a disappointing start to his tenure at Young Africans. The Tanzanian club lost 2-0 to Al Hilal in their opening group stage match of the CAF Champions League.

The match, played at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium on Tuesday, saw Al Hilal take control in the second half, with goals from Adama Coulibaly and Yasir Mozamil sealing the victory.

Despite the setback, Young Africans still have an opportunity to turn their campaign around. With five group stage matches remaining, including clashes against TP Mazembe and MC Alger, they will be aiming to secure crucial points.

Their next fixture is against MC Alger on December 7th at Stade du 5 Juillet 1962. A victory in this match would be crucial to their hopes of advancing to the knockout stage.

Yanga reached the quarter-finals last season but lost in the semi-final to Mamelodi Sundowns on penalty shootouts after both games ended in goalless draws.
