We have Matasi (Patrick) who is constantly talking to the backline and the four of us ahead of him also constantly talk to each other. Also, we correct each other immediately and move on and I think that has been the secret for us,” said Momanyi.Tusker possess the best defensive record in the league having only shipped in 14 goals this season and are three clear of KCB who come in second having conceded 17 goals thus far this campaign.More from Charles Momanyi:https://t.co/2GXacj70jQ— 🏆Tusker FC (@tusker_fc) April 9, 2022 Robert Matano’s charges however hit a speed bump following back to back draws against KCB which opened up a 10 gap at the summit of the log with Kakamega Homeboyz still sitting pretty at the apex.“It was a bit disappointing for us because we wanted to get those six points and ensure the gap between us and the leaders is manageable. But we didn’t achieve that and we take it as a challenge to work harder for the remaining 10 games of the season,” added Momanyi.
