I was happy with the energy they gave in the draw against Bandari but I was not happy with the result,” said Spier.Under his role in FKF, the German tactician was mandated with the task of training coaches and growing youth football before leaving the post back in 2018 after two years.Spier was however disappointed with the 1-1 draw which marked his first dropped points since taking over Gor Mahia after the departure of Mark Harrison.##EDITORS_CHOICE##“We saw a very tough game between two quality teams, I am a little bit disappointed because we were leading for long and even towards the end we had a goal that was minimally offside. The weather was very hot, we are not used to this kind of weather in Nairobi but that should not be a big problem in football,” added Spier.
