As Africa marvels at Tanzania’s unique achievement of having two teams qualify for the quarterfinals of the African Champions League, Yanga fans have an added reason to celebrate – the exceptional form of their player, Pacome Zouzoua.
Throughout the six group stage matches, Pacome has scored three crucial goals, demonstrating his ability to find the back of the net and influence results.
The spark for this star ignited on December 2nd, 2023, in a match against Al Ahly. With Yanga fans seemingly losing hope, Pacome emerged from nowhere to score an injury-time goal amidst a swarm of Al Ahly defenders at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium.
On December 8th, 2023, Pacome again lifted the spirits of Yanga fans who found themselves trailing after a penalty goal. He rose to the occasion, unexpectedly finding the equalizer in the 36th minute.
December 20th, 2023 witnessed Pacome continuing his scoring streak, netting one of Yanga’s three goals against Medeama at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium.
Though he didn’t score in Yanga’s 4-0 victory over CR Belouizdad on February 24th, 2024, Pacome Zouzoua still delighted football fans with his remarkable skills on the pitch.
With Yanga now dreaming of the semi-finals, what can you expect from Pacome in their quest to reach the next stage?
- Continued goalscoring: Especially against tough opponents like Esperance Sportive de Tunis.
- Creativity and chance creation: Setting up scoring opportunities for his teammates.
- Leadership and motivation: Inspiring his fellow players to give their all.
Pacome Zouzoua has been Yanga’s shining star in this season’s African Champions League. Fans are confident that he will maintain his excellent form and help his team achieve its goals.
