Ouma rues missed chances, errors in Mbaraki defeat

Sofapaka FC head coach David Ouma says errors and missed chances cost his side on Sunday after they surrendered their lead to lose 2-1 to Bandari at the Mbaraki Sports Club.The 2009 league champions had taken the lead midway through the first half when Joe Waithira slotted home. Abdallah Hassan responded with a spectacular equalizer nine minutes later before new signing Felix Oluoch earned his side maximum points deep into stoppage time to ensure that the title hopefuls start the season on a winning note.##NAJAVA_MECA_6824792##For Ouma however, the loss is a bitter pill to swallow. The tactician believes that they would have won the game had they taken the chances that they created in the first half. He also believes that both goals conceded by his side should have been avoided. He faulted keeper Simon Masaka for letting for not denying Hassan the leveler.“Our matches against Bandari have always been like derbies, they are always tough but we had good chances in the first half, we had around four good opportunities which we should have taken. We started the game properly by scoring and we should have done better in denying them the equalizer, my keeper should have done better in that situation because it was a shot taken from 40 yards and he should have parried it out,” he said.

They will host the mail-men at the Kasarani Annex on Saturday afternoon.Wendo available for Gor Mahia’s next game after horrifying clash of heads
