The sting of the 0-1 defeat to Kista SC is still fresh, but here at Mathare River FC, we don't dwell on the past—we learn from it and move forward with purpose. The narrow loss, despite dominating possession, was a painful but necessary lesson: commitment and coordination win games, not just control.
Next week, we get another chance to prove our readiness!
Our next pre-season friendly takes us back to the familiar turf of Baba Dogo Grounds next Thursday for a 4:30 PM kick-off against Wendani FC.
This isn't just another practice match; it's a crucial checkpoint. The technical bench has been emphatic: the focus in training this week is solely on transforming defensive blunders into solid walls, and turning midfield dominance into clinical goals.
"We saw the potential last weekend," one of the players commented. "Now, it's about connecting the dots. When the coach talks about commitment, he means every single pass, every tackle, every run must be executed like it's the final minute of the championship. Against Wendani, that's what we aim to show."
⏳ The Countdown is REAL: November 23rd
With the League commencement set for November 23rd, time is our most valuable opponent. Every player knows that every minute spent on the pitch against Wendani FC is an audition for the starting XI on opening day.
We're looking for that hunger, that seamless co-ordination, and the ruthless finish that turns control into three points. Come see the boys pour their hearts out as they sharpen their skills and solidify their teamwork.
