AFCON 2023: Tanzania SACKS head coach

Tanzania coach Adel Amrouche has been sacked by the Tanzania Football Federation following an eight-match ban and a $10, 000 fine by the Confederation of Africa Football.

The Algerian was handed the ban because of his comment after their 3-0 thrashing by Morocco in their first match.

In a statement released by the Tanzania Football Federation on Friday, Amrouche would be replaced by Hemed Morocco as the interim coach.

“In another step, the Executive Committee of the Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) has suspended Coach Adel Amrouche.

“As a result of that decision, Hemed Morocco has been appointed as Acting Coach, and he will be assisted by Juma Mgunda,” the statement read.
