Matchday 14 certainly delivered on the pitch when it came to the turmoil laden 2021/2022 Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL).While every other thing seems to be pulling down on just what could be, the beautiful game keeps winning on the turf, at least if the latest round of matches is anything to go by.A mouthwatering nine matches were played and all of them resulted in a scenario that is shaping the league to what could be an interesting campaign. Here are the talking points from the action over the weekend.Kakamega Homeboyz make strong statement of intent“Could this finally be their season?”That is the talk that has been swirling around after current log leaders Kakamega Homeboyz opened up a five-point gap at the top of the table following their latest 2-3 win against direct title challengers KCB.Homeboyz thrash KCB to open five point gap at the topThe Bernard Mwalala-coached side are enjoying the most rewarding form currently as they are one of only two teams (Bandari) in the league that have lost one match in the opening fourteen rounds.While many expected the team to struggle away from their Bukhungu Stadium fortress, the team has gone against all odds as they have only dropped points twice in Nairobi– draws against Bidco and AFC Leopards – on their five visits so far where they have won against Wazito, Kariobangi Sharks and KCB.Although record Kenyan champions Gor Mahia could snip their lead to three points should they win their match in hand, it is starting to get to a point where Homeboyz look like a side that is certainly going to be in the title equation come the end of the season without a doubt.🚨TABLE🚨#FKFPL table after the weekend games. Homeboyz did what potential Champions do, beat their biggest challengers away from home.Hii title ni kama itaenda Kakamega….#FFP pic.twitter.com/DFwApszgzJ— Friends of Football (@friendsofutball) January 16, 2022 Gor Mahia make top three comeback as City Stars climb up to second placeA second consecutive win of the year completely changed the picture for record Kenyan champions Gor Mahia who appeared to have lost the plot in the month of December 2021 as they fell behind in the title race.With their 2-0 win against FC Talanta courtesy of a brace from Austin Odhiambo, who was opening his account for the club, K’Ogalo find themselves back in the title equation with other results going their way.Since signing for Gor Mahia, talented midfielder Austin Odhiambo had to wait for 1️⃣0️⃣3️⃣ days to open his account at the club.It came as a brace against FC Talanta today as Gor won 2-0 to go third on the log table.

You can never rule them out, can you?One thing I always admire about Gor is their ability to hold their heads high and grind results even when in deep trouble everywhere else. I needs some lessons on how this is delivered. 😀— WALTER Onyino (@onyino_walter) January 17, 2022 Elsewhere Nairobi City Stars jumped up to second as they heaped pressure on reigning champions Tusker who were left languishing in 13th place, a whopping fifteen points behind leaders Homeboyz.While City Stars are up there, the only question is whether they can sustain it with some consistency because they are one of the well-managed teams with a sound footballing atmosphere.Late Maloba strike heaps pressure on Tusker as City Stars climb upto secondKimanzi goes and Wazito suddenly record first win of the yearAre you thinking what I am thinking?Francis Kimanzi was seen as the perfect final ingredient to Wazito’s cooking broth. However, just one season and thirteen games later, the former Harambee Stars boss was shown the exit door following a string of poor results that had seen the club fall into the trenches of relegation.FTWazito FC 2-1 Nzoia Sugar FCWe return to winning ways. #Wazito4life pic.twitter.com/0DZ5TwsFyW— Wazito Football Club (@wazitofc) January 16, 2022 What was even more difficult to understand was how that was happening despite the experienced boss being given his desired signings in the transfer market.Sources from inside the club say the boss was not liked by the team with some even saying that players were sabotaging the project just to get rid of him. Such sentiments are difficult to counter as the club immediately picked a 2-1 win against Nzoia Sugar following his sacking to bring to an end a three-match losing streak.Hire that man and sack him again! https://t.co/dmmPZCdhKk— Kelly Ayodi (@AyodiKelly) January 16, 2022 Although they are still in 15th, just three points above relegation, let us see how it goes from here.Tusker and Leopards closer to the bottom than the topLed by the most vocal of coaches in the league, AFC Leopards only wish that talk could easily be transformed to results on the pitch. Then they could perhaps inch closer to ending their over two-decade league title drought. As things stand currently, the best the Mashemeji Derby participants can do is to dream.After 14 matches, the club are in 14th on the log on 14 points having managed only three wins thus far. Things certainly look bleak and even after a fundraiser was held to help alleviate the club from its problems, it is not clear if their transfer ban that plunged them into a crisis has been lifted.Despite a good collective performance, after 6 games unbeaten , we lost yesterday due to individual mistakes …but that’s part of the game! Who has never made a mistake ? So AFC fans, keep supporting your players .They need you to build a bright future ! pic.twitter.com/Gk4nngmkL6— Patrick Aussems (@PatrickAussems) January 16, 2022 Unlike their green half who always seem to perform with all the troubles, Ingwe are degenerating as weeks go by.On the other hand, Tusker seem to forget the tag they have – reigning champions. The team is clueless right from their style of play, if there is one. Currently, the club has already lost six matches – one more than they did in their title-winning campaign last season – and look like as side that will lose even a lot more if things do not change at Ruaraka.City Stars score. I hate to say this but we need a new TB. And by a new TB I mean everyone goes home on that bench except the TM and Doctor.
