Police and Kariobangi Sharks battle to a barren draw in a pre-season test match

Football Kenya Federation Premier League sides Kariobangi Sharks and Kenya Police have laboured for a barren draw in a pre-season friendly match staged at the Utalii grounds.Police who returned to the country a week ago from Rwanda where they had gone for a supposed pre-season camp paraded their newly-acquired arsenals in the game but their presence could not inspire them to gun down their opponents.##NAJAVA_MECA_6633051##The lack of a razor-sharpened cutting edge in the final third left coach Samuel Omollo a concerned man but the former Kenyan international says he will make good use of the remaining pre-season time to fine-tune his forwards.”We had good build ups but unfortunately we were not sharp in the final third unlike in the past couple of test matches we have been playing. The good thing is there is time to work on it. I am happy with the flashes of brilliance from the new players who have adapted well to our style of play,” he said.His opposite number William Muluya was also troubled with the goal shyness displayed by his forward line.Sharks created a handful of clear cut chances especially in the first half but all went begging.Exclusive: Former Homeboyz coach Bernard Mwalala set to take over at Ulinzi StarsTyson Kapchanga who was lured from Nzoia Sugar had the clearest chance in the game when he was put through in the third minute but despite rounding the on rushing Ochieng, his goal bound shot was dramatically cleared by Musa Mohammed who had covered the near post.”We played well but the struggle to get the ball past the goalkeeper was rife. We lost the forwards who scored more than twenty goals combined last season and therefore, I had to bring in new ones. They are still adapting and hopefully, the remaining time to the start of the league will be sufficient enough to get them ready,” he said.
