majaaliwa ya bongo kombe la dunia

Iwapo Tanzania itafanikiwa kuingia kwenye kundi la timu 20, majaliwa ya kuwa wa kwanza au wa pili katika kundi letu la kwanza, basi tutakuwa tumejiweka katika nafasi nzuri ya kucheza fainali za Afrika mwaka 2010 nchini Angola hata kama hatutafanikiwa kwenda Kombe la Dunia Afrika Kusini. Kwa nini? Kwa sababu washindi watatu wa kwanza wa kila kundi (kundi litakuwa na timu nne), watakwenda moja kwa moja kwenye fainali za Afrika. Sasa hapo tushindwe wenyewe tena.

Angalia hapo makundi yalivyo, halafu soma utaratibu wake utakavyokuwa, kwa Kimombo ili kuweka msisitizo.
