Matano remains bullish despite losing title race advantage

Tusker head coach Robert Matano maintains that, the Football Kenya Federation Premier League title race between them and Gor Mahia will go down to the wire.Last Sunday’s 2-1 loss to Wazito FC saw the brewers relinquish the top position in the log to Gor, who now have a two-point advantage heading into the final two matches of the campaign.##NAJAVA_MECA_7306289##Gor have a superior goal-difference and require four points to crowned champions.Tusker on the other hand must win their remaining two games and hope that the record league champions slip.The brewers will face Posta Rangers and the relegated Vihiga Bullets in their final two games while Gor, have assignments against Kakamega Homeboyz and Nairobi City Stars.Harambee Stars utility man Clarke Oduor joins EFL league two side Bradford CityDespite the setback, the bullish Matano maintains that the race is far from decided. He believes that there could be further twists and turns in the race.”It’s still too early for any team to celebrate. We were at the top of the table a couple of days ago and we have since been dislodged to the second spot,” Matano told the Star.In 2021, the brewers managed to pip KCB to the title on the final day of the season and he believes, that this season’s race could follow a similar path.”Just as it happened in 2020, the season might be decided on the final day of the competition. Only two points separate us from leader Gor Mahia and another two points separate us from third-placed Nzoia Sugar. At this rate anything is bound to happen,” he added.Could Harambee Stars skipper be heading to Netherlands?He challenged his players to rise from Sunday’s heartache and end the season strongly.”We have to rise, shake off the dust, and move on to our next match. All the players know how important it is for us now to win all our remaining matches and I believe they’ll throw everything into the fixtures to get us all the points we need to win the league.”
