The decline at Lanet barracks has once again been exposed after a once upon a time dreaded Ulinzi Stars limply lost 2-0 to Nairobi City Stars on Saturday at the ASK Grounds in Nakuru.The soldiers were gunning to arrest their worrying three match winless run but were humiliated by the league returnees to stretch their recent awful run to four matches.Coach Benjamin Nyangweso rung a host of changes prior to kick off, handing former national U23 goalkeeper Timothy Odhiambo a rare start in between the sticks while former ‘Golden Boot’ holder Enosh Ochieng who has been away for military duties was named on the bench.Simba kweli anapenda KDF 😋#𝕊𝕚𝕞𝕓𝕒𝕎𝕒ℕ𝕒𝕚𝕣𝕠𝕓𝕚 https://t.co/SI9jI0Ui0N— Official Nairobi City Stars Fc (@NrbCityStars) July 10, 2021 The title winning coach also started Byron Odiaga at the heart of the defence where he partnered with Alex Masinde while Bernard Ongoma was preferred ahead of Elvis Nandwa.Inspite of the changes, Ulinzi found themselves trailing hardly seven minutes into the game as Nicholas Kipkirui poked home the lead for City Stars.The former Gor Mahia man who joined the Kawangware based club in March has two goals against Ulinzi as he found the back of the net during their Football Kenya Federation Cup round of sixteen match.Just before Ulinzi could think of plotting retaliation, Bolton Omwenga fired home a superb freekick two minutes later to double the scores for City Stars.Ft| @NrbCityStars take it all in Nakuru#BKPL pic.twitter.com/UY695LGka4— Betking Kenya Premier League (@Officialfkfpl) July 10, 2021 Desperate to pick at least a point in the match, Nyangweso brought in Nandwa and Enosh before restart for Ibrahim Shambi and Mark Bikokwa and would bring in the duo of Omar Boraafya and Clinton Omondi for Masita Masuta and John Njuguna at the stroke of an hour. However the astute defending by City Stars ensured that coach Sanjin Alagic collected four points from the barracks.
