Okare contented with season’s achievement, remains hopeful of the golden boot

MCF striker Ezekiel Okare remains hopeful of clinching the 2021/2022 National Super League top scorer’s gong in the last match of the season when his side takes on Mwatate United at Thika Stadium today afternoon.The former Premier League player has gone toe to toe with Mwatate’s Elly Saenyi, and with the two facing off on the final day, and only one goal separating them on the scoring chart.The decision of the Independent Disciplinary and Appeals Committee (IDAC) to award Fortune Sacco the abandoned match against MCF was a blow not only to the team but also to Okare who had scored in that game, which meant his goal then did not count in his tally.D-day for Fortune Sacco, Murang’a Seal as NSL comes to an endThe former Ulinzi Stars striker is however looking forward to the last match of the season, remaining optimistic that it is a chance to settle the contest at home, against each other.”It has been a good season, and I have the chance to settle the golden boot race a home, against my main competitor. We have had a more robust backline and that could come in handy. But the fate of the race is in my hands, I believe. I am not under any pressure, and neither is the team, and we will approach the game just like any other, the same way we have done the whole season,” he told Mozzart Sport.Okare joined the NSL outfit at the start of the season after parting ways with Posta Rangers on a season-long deal while in search of playing time having lacked that at Posta.He feels that he has already over achieved this season and is contented so far as the curtains fall on the second tier.”My aim was to score 20 goals this season. I have gone beyond that and I am contented with what I have been able to achieve so far,” he added.
