Fortune Sacco head coach Vincent Nyaberi is impressed by his side 2-1 win over Kisumu All Stars in a National Super League match at the weekend but is magnanimous to acknowledge the hard shift his boys had to put in the face of unrelenting opponent.

Speaking to Citizen Digital, Nyaberi admitted that the encounter proved to be more challenging than expected, noting that their opponents showed strong determination throughout the game.

‎ ‎It was not an easy match because they were fighting for survival and we are also looking for ways to play in the Premier League,” he said.

Nyaberi revealed that Fortune Sacco were forced to work until the closing stages of the match to secure the decisive goal, highlighting the intensity of the contest.

The coach also pointed out that his team created several scoring opportunities but failed to convert many of them, an issue he believes must be addressed quickly.

We have to go back to the drawing board to work on the finishing. We are creating a lot of chances but converting them is where we are having a problem,” he reckoned.

With only 10 matches remaining before the National Super League season reaches its conclusion, Fortune Sacco currently sit sixth on the table with 49 points. They trail league leaders Migori Youth by 12 points, leaving little margin for error in their quest to climb into the promotion positions.

Meanwhile, Nyaberi and his squad will now shift focus to their upcoming fixtures, knowing that consistent performances and better finishing could make the difference in their push for promotion as the season enters its decisive stage.
