Wanjala demands for ruthlessness from strikers in league clash against Mulembe United

Mara Sugar head coach Benedict Wanjala has urged his attackers to capitalize on their chances when they meet Mulembe United on Sunday at the Awendo Green Stadium.His remarks comes after his side played out a barren draw against SS Assad on Sunday, failing to reduce the gap between them and second-placed Mathare United.##NAJAVA_MECA_7872782##Mara have seemingly lacked a threat in front of the goal after the exit of Philemon Nyakwaka to top-tier outfit KCB.The presence of creative players in the team would have easily filled the gap Nyakwaka left but that has not been the case leaving Wanjala demanding for more.“Our striking struggled last time, we had the chances to the match in Ukunda but all turned wasteful. We have scored fewer goals in the last three games and with attacking options at the club we should not be talking about the goal drought, I know the quality of my players and I am challenging them every day to pull their socks and fight for the team,” he said.The ex-Mwatate United tactician said he is spending most of his time with the forwards in training engaging in drills to get the best out of his trio of Mohamed Baraza, Mike Isabwa, and Dennis Cheruiyot as well as the wingbacks Derrick Kipkoech and Robert Obaga.“I have had separate sessions with them to try and get the best out of the five, I am impressed with what I have seen and hopefully on Sunday we score more than three goals to send a statement to the lot ahead of us,” he added.Wanjala further reiterated the need to bag maximum points at home to bridge with the top two. Mara finds themselves three points behind second-placed Mathare while falling five behind leaders Naivas Football Club.“We are focusing on the weekend match, this is a must-win if we want to keep dreaming about promotion, our fans should come out in abundance to give support to the boys as we try and find a path to FKF Premier League,” asserted the award-winning coach with the Black Berets (APS Bomet)Mombasa Stars happy with transfer business, target Mozzart Bet Cup gloryThe sugarmen will however, have to do without the services of three key players with goalkeeper Brian Omondi sidelined for three weeks with a 2nd and 3rd metacarpal fracture, wingback Patrick Otieno is also ruled out of the weekend action as well as central defender Joseph Okwenda.Nyamunyamu holding on to title hopes despite Police loss
