Buoyant Matano angling for better after guiding Tusker to first win of the season

After a limping start to the 2021/2022 Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) season, Tusker FC head coach Robert Matano is hoping the reigning champions can build on the newly found momentum that the team got after recording the first win of the season against Wazito in their third game of the campaign played over the weekend.##NAJAVA_MECA_5938226##In their first two games, the Brewers worryingly succumbed to straight defeats against AFC Leopards and newly promoted Talanta to send cold shivers down the team’s spine and welcome scathing remarks to the lethargic start they had.However, in the Saturday fixture, goals from new signings Shami Kibwana and Deogratius Ojok proved enough to end the losing streak and hand the 12-time Kenyan champions their first win in the new campaign.FULL TIME AT RUARAKA.Brilliant from the boys!! pic.twitter.com/LyX4kIjHtx— 🏆Tusker FC (@tusker_fc) October 30, 2021 Following the victory, Matano expressed his desire to see the team carry on with that form into their next game as they prepare to defend the title they reclaimed from record Kenyan champions Gor Mahia.“We started badly mostly because we had not been together as a team. Right now they are catching up so well and that loss against Talanta motivated the players. Because we are champions, we are expected to stand strong. In the game against Wazito, the whole team played well. The organization, buildup, urgency and composure was really good. That win is a motivation for the boys and we cannot afford to lose anymore. Right now, our focus is on the upcoming match on Wednesday,” the head coach said.📸| Feels nice to have this feeling back! pic.twitter.com/fZmDQ0DEBX— 🏆Tusker FC (@tusker_fc) October 30, 2021 Just four days after picking up their first win of the season, Tusker will be back in action in a rescheduled midweek fixture where they will face newly promoted Kenya Police FC on Wednesday at Kasarani Stadium.
