The Tanzanian Football Federation has moved swiftly to replace Mart Noorj who was dismissed owing to poor performance by naming Mkwasa who will be in charge of the Taifa Stars
Tanzania have announced they have appointed Boniface Mkwasa as national team head coach on an interim capacity.
According to the Tanzania Football Federation president, Jamal Malinzi – Mkwasa would be assisted by Zanzibar coach, Hemed Morocco as his position will be reviewed at the end of September.
His first task is to overturn a 3-0 goal deficit against Uganda in the second leg of their African Nations Championship qualifier in Kampala in less than a fortnight before leading his team against the Super Eagles in September’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.
The former Yanga SC midfielder is expected to overhaul the squad that lost the opening 2017 African Cup of Nations qualifier match to Egypt and pick a new-look team to face Nigeria in the second match in September.
Even at this, Mkwasa will continue in his role as assistant coach at his former club Yanga, where he works with another Dutch coach in Hans Van de Pluijm.
