Nzoia Sugar FC head coach Salim Babu remains positive about his side’s chances of clinching the league title ahead of the final two league matches of the campaign.The millers remain third in the log with 63 points, two off leaders Tusker FC and one behind the second placed Gor Mahia.Saturday’s 3-2 win over Nairobi City Stars saw them reduce the gap between them and the two giants.##NAJAVA_MECA_7299378##It has been an extraordinarily good season for the Bungoma-based side, who last season were battling the drop but have been a totally different side this campaign, and with two matches before the season ends, they remain in the title talks.Their chances of winning the title are not totally in their hands as it depends on Tusker and Gor Mahia dropping points, but Babu remains confident that the stars can align and see them lift the title come the end of the campaign.”We are just two points behind leaders Tusker FC now, and there are still two games to go, and anything can happen; strange things happen in football. We will try to win our next game at home against KCB and see what happens after that,” he said after Saturday’s win over Nairobi City Stars at the Kasarani Annex.Reflecting on the win over Simba Wa Nairobi, where they had to come from a goal down to win, Babu noted that they would have easily scored more goals in the game.”We played well against the City Stars, and it was a great performance from the boys overall. We should have won the game by a bigger margin; there was no danger, and they capitalized on our mistakes to score their goals. But sometimes football works like that,” he added.
