Western Stima coach Paul Ogai explains why they suffered huge defeat to Sony Sugar

Western Stima head coach Paul Ogai has admitted that his team was not fully fit against Sony Sugar.

The power men fell 4-0 to the sugar millers last weekend in a Kenyan Premier League match played at the Awendo Green Stadium. Ogai says injuries have messed his side but hopes for a good result when they face Vihiga United this weekend.

“Actually we were not fit at all against Sony Sugar; we are used to creating chances in the first ten minutes or so when we play but that did not happen last weekend. We struggled and the result says it all. The injuries we have also contributed to the defeat; sometimes missing your key players affects your team.

“We have to bounce back this weekend against Vihiga United. It is going to be tough but we have to give our best, we have to cope with the situation,” Ogai told Goal.

Western Stima have matches against Vihiga, Mathare United and AFC Leopards to conclude the first leg.
