FKFPL Aussems claims Leopards "deserved to lose" in draw against KCB
Leopards blew a 2-0 lead to draw 2-2 with title challengers KCB.
Gor Mahia are currently on top of the standings with 56 points, two ahead of Tusker who failed to win away against third-placed Nzoia Sugar while KCB are just seven points behind K’Ogalo following their draw with AFC Leopards on Sunday.
The record league champions beat Kenya Police 1-0 at the Kasarani Stadium on Saturday in a match where the water-logged and tough state of the pitch made it difficult for the players to express themselves.

The Northern-Irish tactician revealed that his players played well and got a deserved three points after withstanding slippery conditions that essentially prevented the game from finding any sort of rhythm.
“I think it is important to calm down when you are in a head-to-head title race and you are a young supporter or young player who has not experienced this before,” he said, “There are a lot of players playing for K’Ogalo right now who have not been in a title race before,” he added.
“They haven’t competed for big trophies before. We work with them and make them aware of the psychology behind it. We know they are good players and we know that if they show their potential, they can beat any team in this division and they have continually shown it this season.
