'Zico': It is normal to lose in a football match

Gor Mahia caretaker coach Zedekiah 'Zico' Otieno says the 2-0 defeat by Sofapaka should not be blown out of proportion.

Goal from Ezekiel Okore and Timothy Luda handed K'Ogalo their third defeat of the league campaign, as Tusker overtook them to the top spot. 'Zico', who was taking charge after former coach Ze Maria resigned, is confident though that his team will bounce back. "This is football and defeats do come, there is nothing special with Gor Mahia losing, it happens.

"It is a wake up call for us to work harder and win our next match. We are definitely gutted for not winning the match considering we had chances to score, but it is gone now."

The fifteen times league champions are now second with 27 points, one point behind champions Tusker. The brewers were held to a barren draw by Kariobangi Sharks.
