“We can’t breathe!” That is the cry of relegation-threatened Wazito FC as the Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) enters the homestretch.Based in Muhoroni, Kisumu County, Wazito alongside Kakamega Homeboyz FC and Vihiga Bullets FC are the only FKFPL sides from the larger Western Kenya.##NAJAVA_MECA_7194533##This comes with not only financial, but also physical burden of hitting the road every now and then as the FKF tries to conclude the league before the June deadline.Wazito are scheduled to face defending champions Tusker FC away on Wednesday, Ulinzi Stars at home on Saturday and Sofapaka away on Tuesday next week.”It is tough for us,” Wazito FC Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Calvince Dave told Mozzart Sport. “We have pleaded with the federation (FKF) to reschedule some of the games, but they have refused,” the youthful administrator lamented.To compound their woes, the former moneybags are embroiled in a battle of their survival as they are currently deep in the relegation zone.The team is yet to win a game in 19 outings; losing 13 and drawing six. Under coach Charles Odera who took over the reins towards the end of February, Wazito have played 10 matches, losing 7 and drawing 3.”It is a complicated situation for us, yet, we are still expected to give good results,” Dave lamented.Meanwhile, high riding Tusker FC are gunning to fully take advantage of Gor Mahia’s misfortune and roar back to the top of the table standings with a win on Wednesday.The brewers who are a point behind K’Ogalo with a game to spare will certainly dislodge the record 19-time Kenyan champions from the helm with a win over strugglers Wazito.Olunga spot on as Al Duhail reclaim top place”We are not giving up on survival, and nobody should expect free points from us,” Wazito FC coach Odera warned ahead of the match.“Those ten games remaining are still very many and we are not throwing in the towel just yet,” he added.##EDITORS_CHOICE##
