Sambo passed away after being hospitalised in Chimoio, Manica province.<\/p>\n

Known as \u201cMister Futsal\u201d, In\u00e1cio Sambo was one of the sport\u2019s greatest promoters, and was instrumental in enabling Mozambique to participate in the World Futsal Grand Prix in Brazil.<\/p>\n

Moreover, he was among those responsible for the fourth place achieved by the National Futsal Team in 2008.<\/p>\n

Sambo also had a hand in the creation, in 2007, of the National Futsal Commission, a process that had the support of the Mozambican Football Federation (FMF).<\/p>\n

Sambo was a futsal instructor for the African Football Confederation (CAF) and a sports commentator for STV, where he collaborated, since the channel\u2019s inception, on several sports programmes.<\/p>\n
