Ambani believes is his charges keep posting good results they can cut the gap and improve their chances of winning the title.
“I remain optimistic about closing the gap on the top four, Police, Tusker, Gor Mahia and KCB. We need to keep our passionate fans happy with consistent performance as we look forward to returning the club’s lost glory,” added Ambani, who promised to work on his attacking force that has not been effective enough.
On March 28, just two days before AFC Leopards hosted Gor Mahia in the 96th meeting between the two teams at Nyayo National Stadium, Leopards’ coach Fred Ambani surprised many when he declared that he was out to protect his unbeaten record against Gor in the match dubbed “Mashemeji derby.”
Since 1968, the two arch-rivals have engaged in intense battles, with Gor Mahia winning 33 times against Leopards’ 28. Thirty-four meetings between the two teams have ended in draws, including last Sunday’s.
