Juma tips Trinity Starlets to upset Bungoma Starlets in FKF Cup

Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Women's Premier League outfit Trinity Starlets is aiming to reach the semi-finals of the FKF Women’s Cup when they face Bungoma Queens in the cup's quarterfinals this weekend.

Head coach Moses Juma termed the clash as a good opportunity to avenge the 3-0 defeat they suffered at the hands of Queens in the second leg of the women’s premier league in the just concluded season.

Juma further stated that the team has corrected the mistakes they made in their previous match against Bungoma, including their failure to convert their chances and letting in easy goals.

"Our goal is to try and beat Bungoma Queens because they beat us in the Premier League. We have worked on our weaknesses in readiness for the coming fixture. They beat us because of the costly mistakes in goalkeeping, defense, and failure to convert our chances; these are the areas that we have addressed," Juma told Citizen Digital.

The tactician also said they are not under any pressure ahead of their match against Queens: "We are taking each match at a time; this is a knockout game, and our aim is to qualify for the next stage."

Trinity Starlets beat Ndarawetta Tea Queens 2-1 to qualify for the quarter-finals, while Bungoma Queens defeated Gideons Starlets 3-0.
