In their FKF Premier League encounter held at St. Sebastian Park – Murang’a on Sunday, Nzoia Sugar FC’s head coach, Mike Mururi, blamed the team’s 4-0 loss to hosts Murang’a Seal on shoddy finishing and shambolic defending.The former Kenyan international was blunt about Sunday’s defeat, stating that his players’ inexperience cost them dearly.##NAJAVA_MECA_8020137##It was the first match for Mururi since he took over the reins at the club from interim coach Steve Biko, who was relieved of his duties following an unwarranted run of results with the Millers.Relegation looks certain for the millers if they do not make a swift turnaround. Nzoia, a team that had a fantastic run in the league last season to finish fourth, is currently suffering at the bottom.”The game proceeded rather well, and the officiating was excellent. Our inability to take full advantage of the several chances we created to score goals contributed to our defeat.“The defence was terrible as well, but I recognize that the team is inexperienced and still learning.””I will continue to work on them as we get ready for our upcoming match against Gor Mahia,” Mururi told reporters after the match.Despite the loss, Mururi is steadfast in his belief that Nzoia will avoid relegation.”For the time being, let us stay focused; we will not be demoted. I promise you about that one. We had our opportunities in the match on Sunday, so there are positives to take away from it,” claimed Mururi.He then added, “We are going to focus on our defence.”The Millers are placed at the bottom of the 18-team log with 17 points from 25 league rounds after managing four wins, five draws, and losing 16 times.They will have a chance to redeem themselves on Saturday when they welcome leaders Gor Mahia at Sudi Stadium.
