Nigerian
football legend, Emmanuel Amuneke, has been relieved of his coaching job by the
Tanzania Football Federation (TFF), following the poor performance of the Taifa
Stars in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Egypt.
The East
Africans were eliminated in the group stage, losing 2-0 to Senegal, 3-2 to
Kenya and suffering a 3-0 defeat to Algeria to finish at the base of Group C
with zero points.
On the back of
the poor performances, Tanzania’s governing body decided to part ways with the
former Nigeria international and Barcelona winger.
