Kimani: Not yet time for panic button

Bandari FC head coach Anthony Kimani believes that they have a chance to turn things around after their latest 1-0 defeat to Gor Mahia at the Moi International Sports Centre Kasarani on Wednesday, a result that leaves them with just one win so far this season.The Dockers went into the game against K’Ogalo looking for three points after firing blanks in the last three matches. It wasn’t to be as an error in the 7th minute gifted Gor Mahia a goal that proved to be the difference in the match.##NAJAVA_MECA_6903572##Goalkeeper and captain Michael Wanyika in a bid to prevent a corner kick pulled the ball back into play but failed to gather it and Benson Omala took full advantage of the confusion to back his fourth goal of the season and earn his team maximum points in the last match of 2022. The league takes a break until the 4th of January.After five rounds of league matches, the dockers have managed to pick a win, two draws, and two losses a run that Kimani agrees is not good enough but believes that they have time to turn things around. He says they have detected weaknesses that they must address.“We have registered mixed results so far but the season is still in its initial stage and there is still enough time left for us to put our house in order. We have seen the weak areas that we should urgently work on heading into our subsequent matches” the tactician said.Benson Omala’s goal vs Bandari FC ⚽.#kefootball pic.twitter.com/rFCqdpVPHJ— Kefootball_ (@Kefootball1) December 21, 2022 On Wednesday, the Mombasa-based Dockers did not look like scoring after that early setback and made everything easy for the record league champions. At full-time, they went back to Mombasa empty-handed and the lack of urgency and willingness to get something out of the game left Kimani a dejected man.“We gave our opponents an easy gift today because apart from the easy goal conceded, we never pressured them at all when they had the ball which made it easy for them to see out the game. The boys did not push themselves to the levels that I know they can play in and we just have to correct that, we have to do better next time,” the tactician said.After bolstering the squad with the likes of Fidel Origa, Felix Oluoch, Daglas Mokaya and James Kinyanjui, the Dockers are expected to be among the title contenders this season. But five matches into the new season, they are fast dropping out of the race. Next for them is a crunch home tie against Posta Rangers on 4th January 2023.Title favourites Tusker out to extend perfect record against tough nuts KCB
