Tusker FC will lift the new golden league trophy on Sunday at Utalii Grounds, but first, they must beat Bidco United in their final league match of the season. This will be their first league title since 2016 when they won a double.The Brewers are three points ahead of second-based KCB but it is their superior goal-difference that will lead them to the title even if they lose to United on Sunday afternoon, they have amassed a total of 62 points while the Bankers have 59. They boast of a plus +25 GD compared to KCB’S +18.It has been an interesting season in general with the title race going all the way to the wire. Unlike in previous seasons where Gor were winning the title with a couple of matches to spare, the 2020/21 race has been a closely fought one and in the final stages it turned out to be a race between the Brewers and the Bankers.Match Day.🆚| Bidco United🏟️| Utalii Complex🕒| 3:15pm EAT#KenyaMilele #Brewers4Life pic.twitter.com/JTkeqispV0— Tusker FC (@tusker_fc) August 22, 2021 Tusker has been the most clinical side in the league this campaign, finding the back of the net 50 times and it could prove a league-winning tally should they lose to United tomorrow and KCB downs City Stars. They have let in half of the goals they have scored. KCB, on the other hand, had the meanest defence letting in just 23 goals, they have scored nine fewer than Tusker and this gives the Brewers an edge on goal difference.Tusker coach Robert Matano says the title is done and dusted and doesn’t see KCB pulling any miracle.“I don’t see anything stopping us from running away with the title. For KCB to dislodge us from the top they must thrash their opponents by at least eight goals which, of course, is highly unlikely,” he told the Star.His Bidco counter Anthony Akhulia will stick with his fringe players against the Brewers.🔥🔥MATCH DAY 🔥🔥Finally, our last match of the season. We are looking forward to ending the season on a high.🆚 @tusker_fc🏟️ Utalii Grounds 🕛 3 pm EAT 🏆 @Officialfkfpl#Ready4Whatever pic.twitter.com/EUmuAuQbqh— Bidco United (@BidcoUnited) August 22, 2021 “I decided to give my players who haven’t featured much this season some playtime. I started with the game against Ulinzi and I will continue that way until the end of the season. We are safe from relegation and it’s only fair that I give other players a chance while those who have played much take a deserved rest,” he told Mozzart Sport.
