FKFPL Dan Shikanda: This is why AFC Leopards re-hired Tomas Trucha as head coach
Trucha has been in charge of Leopards for two games, with his second game being the club’s first win of the season.
The match produced very few chances in the first half with neither team really creating real inroads in the other’s final third.
In the 18th minute, right back Luke Namanda danced past his markers before finding himself in a good position to break the deadlock with a superb opener, but the Sharks goalkeeper Bernard Jairo stood tall to deny him.
The game continued being tight, and both coaches needed to rally their teams at half time in efforts to break the deadlock.

FKFPL Boost for AFC Leopards as star winger returns to training after long-layoff
The Harambee Stars winger became increasingly influential for AFC Leopards last season, scoring six league goals whilst being capable of playing anywhere across the front three.
Ingwe resorted to trying to create by winning freekicks on the edge of the area, and Omune won a free kick on the edge of the area which looked promising for the 13-time league champions, but they could not make advantage of the opportunity.
In the 81st minute, Leopards created arguably their biggest opportunity of the match when Victor Omune executed an exquisite through ball to striker Brian Yakhama, before the former Talanta striker attempted a shot which forced Jairo into making a good save.
