KCB defender draws inspiration from slim win over MOFA, eyes revival in league race

KCB center Nashon Alembi says the team will heavily draw inspiration from their slim 1-0 win over the Michael Olunga Foundation Academy (MOFA) and get their league run back on track.The Bankers registered their first win of the year last weekend when they edged MOFA by a solitary goal in the Mozzart Bet Cup round of 32 game staged at the Raila Odinga Stadium in Homa Bay.##NAJAVA_MECA_7910210##The slender win over the Division One Zone B club was courtesy of Philemon Nyakwaka, whose goal saw him open his goal account at the club.Nyakwaka joined the Bankers in the mid-season transfer window from National Super League side Mara Sugar and had not found the back of the net in the two league matches he had played.Alembi said the win could be all the team needed to turn their season around, especially in the league where the team has been struggling massively.Kakamega Homeboyz ace Omondi content with top tier comebackKCB have not won in their last seven league matches, and this run has dealt their title chances a significant blow.However, Alembi believes that the confidence derived from their win will spur something positive and relieve them of pressure.”This could be our turning point after disappointing results in the past few months. We had not won in a very long time, and the pressure was getting worse,” said the center back.Alembi, who returned from a lengthy injury almost three months ago, maintains hope that the team will score goals going forward after experiencing a goal drought since December last year.KCB has been feeling the absence of striker Francis Kahiro, who ditched the club and joined Bandari in the mid-season transfer window.Before departure, Kahiro had managed six goals for the Bankers and has since taken his tally to eight in the competition after scoring twice for the Dockers.”We have not scored much, but there is a feeling that we will be lethal going forward. The new forwards are talented and have the hunger to prove themselves in the league,” added the former Ushuru defender.Stars Abroad: Marcelo, Ayunga feature off the bench
