James Kotei wins MVP as Simba beat Azam to secure spot in FA Cup final

Ghanaian midfielder James Kotei was voted man of the match as Simba beat Azam 1-0 to secure a spot in the Tanzanian FA Cup final over the weekend.

The 23-year-old put on another superlative display for the Street Boys as they secured qualification to the finals.

Kotei, an ex-Liberty Professionals enforcer, has been in scintillating form since he joined the Tanzanian giants as a free agent.

The Ghanaian has become a mainstay in the Simba side, churning out impressive performances weekly.

The West African was on hand again as Simba recorded the narrow win over Azam and booked a place in the finals where they will meet Mbao.

It's been particularly thrilling for a youngster who has shown tremendous quality at the heart of the park in the Tanzanian top-flight.
