That happened before the foul, so I don’t understand why that would be. I can’t control that, but it seems quite obvious from what we’ve seen and what we’ve been told,” he told the club media.Migori Youth confirm Sammy Okoth appointment as head coachRobinson admitted that his team was not at its best, noting that several of his starters had an off day. “We were not at the top of our game, there were three or four players who were below what they have been recently, but we showed great character to get back into it and get a point—and it could have been three with the chance at the end. We didn’t start well. We made a mistake, which is so uncharacteristic of Alex, but he showed great mentality to play the way he did after,” he added.He further commented on the introduction of Ayunga and other substitutes, stating, “The subs gave us a real impetus when they came on. A point away from home is a point gained. If we can take seven points from this week it would be fantastic for us.”In Poland, Erick Ouma came off the bench for his club, Raków Częstochowa in an away Polish Cup match against Piast Gliwice.
