The hosts finally got an equaliser in the 71st minute via Karihe before Anuary doubled the lead six minutes later. Azam had to wait until the fifth minute of added time for Chirwa to head home the equaliser and ensure the rivals shared the points.
Dube s strike saw him equal Meddie Kagere s tally of 11 goals although the Simba striker has played fewer games. John Bocco of Simba is third with 10 goals while Danny Lyanga of JKT, Ruvu Shooting s Fully Mugunga and Meshack Abraham of Gwambina FC all have eight goals.
Azam s Iddy Selemani and his teammate Ayoub Lyanga have scored seven goals, so have Clatous Chama of Simba, Adam Adam of JKT Tanzania, Kagera Sugar s Yusuph Mhilu, and Karihe.

10 minutes later, Feisal Salum powered home the third goal which ended any hopes Ihefu had to get something from the fixture.
Yanga under coach Cedric Kaze took control of the game from the onset as they knew a win will help them stretch their lead at the top of the 18-team table with their rivals Simba SC, away in Zimbabwe for the Caf Champions League fixture against FC Platinum.
Kaseke, who was a thorn in Ihefu’s defence finally broke the deadlock in the 23rd minute after racing onto a through ball, rounded three defenders before placing it into an empty net.
