Eldonets eye Shields scalp in playoffs berth push

The victory lifted the Eldoret-based side to 16 points after 14 matches, having registered six wins and suffered seven defeats this season.

Moibi was delighted with the manner in which his team controlled the contest from the opening whistle before withstanding a spirited fightback from the visitors.

"I was pleased with the team's performance in our home win against Moischers. We started the game strongly and controlled the pace from the opening minutes, which gave us an early advantage. 

Credit to Moischers, they're a very energetic side with a very good coach, and they showed character by cutting our lead to just four points at one stage.

"I was pleased with how my players responded under pressure. That composure and teamwork helped us pull away again and seal the game in the fourth quarter. It was a solid performance and a good reflection of the effort and discipline that this team has," Moibi narrated.

After strengthening their position in the league standings with the home win, Eldonets will now shift their attention to a difficult away assignment in Nairobi next weekend, where they are scheduled to face Stanbic Shields on Saturday at the USIU Grounds.

Moibi will be hoping his side can build on the momentum from the Moischers victory as they continue their push up the Premier League table.
