However we have prepared well for this game, the boys have shown me that they are really ready for the game, the team spirit in training has been good and we are ready both mentally and physically,” he told Mozzart Sport.FKF-PL | Round 18 | MATCHDAY🗓 | Sunday 13th February 2022🆚 Nzoia Sugar FC🏆 | FKF-PL⏰ | 1500hrs🏟 | Sudi Stadium#𝕊𝕚𝕞𝕓𝕒𝕎𝕒ℕ𝕒𝕚𝕣𝕠𝕓𝕚BETTER MUST COMECOME ONE COME ALL #OperationJazaStadi pic.twitter.com/VA2HQT87kI— Official Nairobi City Stars Fc (@NrbCityStars) February 13, 2022 City Stars defender Kevin Okumu equally anticipates a tough outing but says they will be out to get all the points in Bungoma.“As always the target is to get maximum points from the match because we want to remain among the top teams in the league.
