Kenya Police FC head coach Salim Babu expressed disappointment with his team’s 1-1 draw against Muhoroni Youth FC on Sunday at the Police Sacco Grounds. This result leaves them nine points behind leaders Gor Mahia with nine games remaining before the season concludes.Samuel Adebowale’s early goal for Muhoroni Youth forced the law enforcers to fight for a point. In the end, a Clinton Kinanga strike earned them that point, leaving relegation-threatened Muhoroni happier and title hopefuls Police FC disappointed.##NAJAVA_MECA_7939292##Speaking after the game, Babu, who also serves as the coach for Kenya U18 and Kenya U20, stated they had expected to secure maximum points but acknowledged their poor performance warranted only a point.“This is a game we were supposed to win, but the truth is we played badly. We did not perform well from start to finish, and now we have to settle for that one point,” he said.Babu criticized his team’s finishing upfront and their midfield, identifying them as areas of poor performance.”We expected to win, a result that would have lifted us to a good position. Our finishing, in particular, was not good. The midfield was equally poor, and we did not perform well overall. But it is part of football,” he added.Asked whether the result had affected their chances of catching up with Gor Mahia and winning their maiden title, Babu dismissed the notion but emphasized the need for improvement and focusing solely on their team rather than their opponents.”The nine points are just three games, and anything is possible. But we have to do better. We have to step up and see what happens in the remaining games. We have to look at ourselves first and not focus on what Gor Mahia are doing. We have to focus on us,” he added.Police’s next league match will be against FC Talanta on April 7, 2024.FKFPL Review: Leopards, Gor, Shabana stumble, Tusker, Bandari bullish
