Bandari FC head coach Ken Odhiambo was dissatisfied with his team’s performance despite their 2-0 win over Gor Mahia in the FKF Premier League match on Wednesday, 6th November, at Ukunda Grounds.The Dockers defeated the defending champions with second-half goals from Geoffrey Ojunga and Beja Nyamawi in the 69th and 78th minutes, respectively.##NAJAVA_MECA_8477898##In his post-match press conference, Odhiambo, who also serves as an assistant coach for Harambee Stars, expressed disappointment with his team’s possession.“It was not the best pitch for football. We won, but we couldn’t maintain our usual possession because the pitch was unplayable. We adapted to the conditions, making short passes before playing it forward,” said Odhiambo.Odhiambo explained that his tactical approach was influenced by the day’s high temperatures.“We discussed our strategy beforehand. In the first half, the goal was to avoid conceding because of the heat. Gor Mahia came out strong and ran all over, but we knew they would tire, and that’s what happened—they exhausted their energy,” he noted.STARS ABROAD: Ouma scores own goal in Elfsborg draw as Wilson comes off bench for TNSThe second half saw the game’s major moments: Gor Mahia received a red card, and Bandari capitalized with two goals. Odhiambo attributed the outcome to his substitutions around the hour mark.“My substitutions were crucial. Bringing on Alvin Ngoto and Shariff Majabe changed the game. Ngoto faces defenders and plays penetrating passes, while Shariff provided defensive cover for Izzadin Ramadan, especially against Gor’s long balls,” he added.Farouk Shikalo reveals motivation behind KCB’s impressive startBandari’s next match is at home against Bidco United on Sunday, 10th November.
