Before the match, they came to me and hugged me.“I was expecting the fans would probably boo me, but instead they gave me a standing ovation. It was a very emotional moment for me, and I cherished every aspect of it. It is unfortunate that Shabana lost, but for us it was an important result that we are going to build on to escape relegation,” he said.Michael Olunga Football Academy coach resigns, citing interference and tough working conditionsOmollo said after their loss against Gor Mahia last week, beating Shabana was a must option, and he remains satisfied with the trend the team has taken.“We played really well against Gor Mahia, and they had to score in the last minute. Coming into the match against Shabana, our target was to pick up all three points. The fact is, handling a team that is losing week in week out means that you have to work really hard to build their self-confidence because it is at an all-time low due to the poor results.I have given my players targets as well as myself, and we are pushing ourselves to achieve it while we remain confident it will work.”Tactical Analysis: How struggling Posta Rangers toppled high flying ShabanaSunday was the second win for Omollo since he took over the struggling mailmen.
