AS Vita Club beat Zamalek in the African Champions League first group match.
Sudan's Al Hilal edged out four-time champions TP Mazembe of DR Congo 1:0 in their opening Group A game of the African Champions League.
Samatta is a regular scorer for Mazembe and last season he scored six goals in their Champions League campaign. A win against Zimbabwe over two legs will earn the Taifa Stars a tie against Mozambique or South Sudan in the second round.
Limit on fans for Vita's match against Zamalek in Kinshasa
A stampede at a football match in the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Kinshasa, officials say.
Reports say the trouble began after police fired tear gas in the crowded stadium, causing panic. At least 15 people have been killed and more than 20 people were injured. Local fans were unhappy after the home team, ASV Club, were defeated 1:0 by Tout Puissant Mazembe from Lubumbashi. Stampedes are a frequent occurrence at mass events in the country
He believes that such a boost in finances will also mean more African players staying to play on the continent. "We are trying to offer the best things that we have to our players - it's really tough in Africa to maintain a club," he said. "I think the day African players remain on the continent, then Africa can win the World Cup.
TP Mazemebe, runners-up in last year's Confederation Cup, and AS Vita Club are fierce rivals
