Kenyan international Kenneth Muguna’s Azam FC suffered a shock 2-0 loss to relegation-threatened Biashara United Mara in a Tanzanian Premier League clash on Tuesday.Following a torrid start to the season, Azam FC looked to have steadied the ship after four consecutive wins in all competitions to whittle down Yanga’s lead at the summit of the log to 12 points.#AzamFCOfficialLineUp Kikosi chetu rasmi kitakachoivaa Biashara United. God Bless @azamfc!!! 🙏#WeAreAzamFC #TimuBoraBidhaaBora pic.twitter.com/ty68SUYyxj— Azam FC (@azamfc) February 22, 2022 Biashara United were in a wretched run of form following a patch of 11 games without a win which had seen them slip into the relegation places.Former Gor Mahia midfielder Kenneth Muguna was trusted with another start by head coach Abdihamid Moalin after picking up form following a challenging start to life at Azam.The first half was a tame encounter with both sides having little goalmouth action as they went into the break locked in a barren draw.The game finally burst into life five minutes after the halftime break when Collins Opare got on to the scoresheet as he did in the 2-1 loss to Yanga at the back end of last year.HALF TIME!Biashara 0-0 @azamfc pic.twitter.com/aEd0XVI9U7— Azam FC (@azamfc) February 22, 2022 With Azam pushing bodies forward, Biashara United hit on the counter in the first minute of stoppage time with James Wilson getting his name on the scoresheet to assure them of three points.Biashara United withered a late storm from Azam to hold on to the healthy lead and precious three points that lifted them out of the relegation zone momentarily with Mtibwa Sugar yet to play.
