Gor Mahia captain, Philemon Otieno, remains optimistic about their chances of reclaiming the Football Kenya Federation Premier League title, which they lost to Tusker in the past two seasons.
Otieno and his team view their remaining fixtures as crucial finals as they aim to emerge victorious in an intense showdown with the defending champions, Tusker FC.
While acknowledging the challenges posed by their upcoming matches against Kakamega HomeBoyz and struggling Nairobi City Stars, Otieno emphasizes that they are not feeling pressured but rather focused on putting in the necessary hard work to end the season with the coveted title.
The captain recognizes the trickiness of the fixtures, especially the encounter with Home Boyz, as their coach was previously part of Gor Mahia. However, he assures that the team is determined to overcome these challenges, maintain maximum concentration, and secure the crucial points needed for success.
With 67 points from 32 games, Gor Mahia currently leads the league standings, holding a two-point advantage over defending champions Tusker FC.
The team’s captain believes that their rigorous training and the recent international break have provided them with valuable opportunities to fine-tune their tactics for the remaining matches.
As the 19-time Premier League champions, Gor Mahia is determined to reclaim their title and solidify their position as one of Kenya’s football powerhouses.
