Gor Mahia coach Sinisa Mihic has rallied the club’s passionate fans, the “Green Army,” to fill Nyayo National Stadium this Sunday for an electrifying clash against arch-rivals AFC Leopards in the FKF Premier League first leg. Tqhis highly anticipated ‘Mashemeji’ derby, delayed twice due to venue issues, is set to ignite the spirit of rivalry.
As Mihic faces his first derby after his appointment on February 3, he stands alongside AFC Leopards coach Fred Ambani, who is also experiencing this thrilling moment for the first time since December. This Sunday promises to be a showdown to remember as they will meet again in the second leg.
“Against AFC Leopards, everything is going according to plan. Everything is ready,” Mihic declared. In his initial five matches, the Croatian coach has inspired three victories and two draws, galvanizing K’Ogalo to rise to the challenge despite not yet showing their full potential.
“We have the chance to seize three points, and we will approach this game with utmost professionalism and seriousness. This is a must-win for us; we have no choice,” he affirmed.
Gor Mahia has been undergoing rigorous training at their Mpesa Academy ground in Thika, showcasing their dedication. Recently, Mihic honored their hard work with a well-deserved off day.
Gor Mahia’s Ghanaian midfielder Enock Morrison expressed unwavering confidence, saying, “Everyone is energized, and the atmosphere in training is incredibly high. We have eagerly awaited this match, and I know we are going to win.”
