Murila, 71, who now coaches and mentors youngsters, thinks the late Austin Oduor is perhaps the only player comparable to him in that position.
The AFC Leopards legend was part of the great Ingwe side that won the Cecafa Cup three consecutive times in 1982, 1983 and 1984.
Arguably, Kenya’s best central defender, Josephat “Controller” Murila has said that during his days the Mashemeji derby was probably the most important feature of the league as it determined who would be the Kenyan champion.
“During my time between 1979 and 1987, the winner of the national league was either Leopards or Gor Mahia, because both teams had quality players that made them unstoppable even on the regional scene,” the retired Kenya and AFC Leopards legend told the Daily Nation Sport on Thursday.
