It’s a time to reflect and correct our mistakes in order to perform better in the many future matches after the break,” he explained.Kenya U17 star relocates from Korogocho for safety after featuring at the World CupPrior to Homeboyz’s setback, the Murang’a-based team enjoyed a decent run in performance, going four games unbeaten.Seal registered three draws, a goalless scoreline against Bandari, a one-all draw, and a four-goal thriller in Mara Sugar and Gor Mahia matches, while defeating AFC Leopards 1-0.The former Kibera Black Stars midfielder believes Homeboyz’s surprising setback is a wake-up call, and they intend to capitalise on the break to have a strong response when league action resumes in a week.No Room for Complacency, warns Zimbabwe coach Michael Nees ahead of Kenya clash”We had built up a strong momentum until Homeboyz’s setback. It was a surprise, but also a wake-up call for everyone. We plan to make the most of the break so that we can respond quickly when we return to action next weekend against Shabana,” he stated.Owen, on the other hand, admitted that their defeat was the result of a lack of concentration and a failure to capitalise on their opportunities.”We experienced a lapse in focus, and our opponents punished us accordingly. Similarly, despite the fact that we created countless opportunities, we failed to capitalise on them. “I believe this was the primary reason for our third loss of the campaign,” he added.
