The Tusker Premier League (TPL) top scorer John Baraza scored a brace as his team, the 2009 Kenyan league champions Sofapaka trounced Tanzanian champions Simba SC 3 – 0 in a friendly match played on Thursday 6 September.

Half time lead

It took Baraza just 19 minutes to put Sofapaka in the lead at the National Stadium in Dar es Salaam and Batoto Ba Mungu took the slim lead to the break.

The veteran forward was at it again ten minutes after the restart with the second goal of the game before Joseph Nyaga completed the rout on 66 minutes.

Shift focus

Sofapaka will now turn their focus to Tusker, who they play on Wednesday 12 September at the Nyayo National Stadium in the Kenyan top flight.
