Following a resilient display against a marauding Gor Mahia in the Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) on Sunday, holding them to a barren draw, Wazito FC believe that with such a high level of performance in their remaining five games, they can escape the relegation chop.K’Ogalo, who are chasing the title and wanted to keep a healthy four-point gap between them and Tusker FC at the top, emptied the kitchen at Wazito, but nothing could yield.##NAJAVA_MECA_7244857##”The players knew what to expect, and we told them not to panic, but they remained composed at all times and, above all, played their game. I’m glad they did,” Wazito FC coach Charles Odera beamingly told Mozzart Sport.”But that’s now in the past. If we don’t build on it and pick something against Posta Rangers in our next match, it would be nothing,” the former Chemelil Sugar FC player was quick to add.Wazito will be hosting floundering Posta Rangers FC in their next league outing on Sunday in a match they believe they stand a chance of winning.”We can’t underrate any team, but we’re preparing for a win in this one. We’re playing at home, and we have to make it count,” Odera said.Smarting from a 1-0 loss to KCB FC, which stretched their winless streak to three games, Posta Rangers are expected to come hammer and tongs at Wazito as they seek redemption, but will encounter a buoyant Wazito fired by the Gor Mahia encounter.”I do motivate the players, but the good display against Gor Mahia will for sure lift them higher in the next game.”Wazito Fc have conceded 46 goals this season. How GorMahia haven’t scored against them yet till now, I don’t know. #FootballKE pic.twitter.com/sfMJ3Kpv5R— OmondiWinston (@ItisWinston) May 7, 2023 Placed 17th above bottom-lying and relegation-guaranteed Vihiga Bullets FC, Wazito need just one win to pip Mathare United to 16th, a playoff zone.”It’s what we want as a bare minimum; once there, the playoffs will take care of itself,” Odera said.The Slum Boys’ second leg form has been abysmal. The 2009 champions have now gone seven games without a win. They travel to Bandari FC in Mombasa on Saturday. Joash Onyango leaving Simba?
