Sofapaka striker Rody Manga is hoping to find his first goal of the new 2022/2023 Football Kenya Federation Premier League when his side travels all the way to the Sudi Stadium in Bungoma to face Nzoia Sugar in their third match of the season.With the club having failed to win any game in the two matches they have played so far, losing 2-1 against Bandari in the season opener before recording a barren stalemate against Posta Rangers in the second clash, the Congolese international is keen on ending his goal drought and helping the side march to their first win.🔵Guess who’s back!🔙Rody Manga back with the group 🏠It is a full house ahead of the new season#BatotoBaMungu pic.twitter.com/rhPRqxYLCO— Sofapaka FC (@FC_Sofapaka) September 30, 2022 “I finished the last campaign on a good run, but I have not hit the ground running this season Nonetheless, I am not worried because I am sure of turning around the goal drought starting this weekend against Nzoia Sugar,” the player is quoted on the club’s website ahead of their clash.When it comes to the club’s form, Manga backed the team to get the job done against the sugar millers after making steady progress since their first match of the season.##NAJAVA_MECA_6854007##Having only claimed one point from the available six, the Congolese international also said that there was no need for hitting the panic button just yet with a long way to go before the season winds up.“We have not started the season on a high note as we had earlier planned, but I am glad we have made progress from the Bandari loss to the Posta Rangers draw.
