Young Africans Sports Club produced a ruthless display to sweep aside JKT Tanzania 5–0 in a NBC Tanzania Premier League encounter played on February 25, 2026 at the KMC Complex in Dar es Salaam.
The defending champions signalled their intentions early, taking the lead just seven minutes into the contest when Mohammed Hussein struck to hand Yanga a flying start and pile pressure on their opponents.
The early breakthrough set the rhythm for a largely one-sided affair, with Yanga dominating possession and carving out numerous chances as JKT Tanzania’s backline struggled to contain their speed and movement.
Yanga’s control continued after the interval. Mudathiri Yahya made it 2–0 in the 63rd minute, extending the advantage and effectively ending any hopes of a comeback.
As JKT Tanzania attempted to stem the tide, gaps continued to appear, allowing Yanga to press relentlessly.
Prince Dube added the fourth goal in the 85th minute with a clinical finish inside the penalty area, before Shekhan Khamis completed the emphatic victory with a fifth goal in the 90th minute, sealing a dominant night for the champions.
The convincing win further strengthens Yanga’s position in the race for the NBC Premier League title, reinforcing their status as firm favourites.
For JKT Tanzania, the heavy loss highlights the need for urgent adjustments as they seek to recover momentum in their remaining fixtures.
