Babu pleased with Nzoia outcome against Tusker, says team on 'right path'

Nzoia Sugar FC tactician Salim Babu has lauded his team for playing to his instructions against Football Kenya Federation Premier League defending champions Tusker on Saturday, saying they had prepared well for the match and the point earned after a barren draw was not by fluke.

The draw saw the Sudi-based millers remain second on the FKF-PL log.

Babu believes they are on the ‘right path’ to finish in a better position this term.

"We had prepared well for the match. Football is a game of instructions and the players played just how I wanted and put in the effort,” he explained.

“We remain second on the log and we want to keep the pace, we want to finish in a better position this term and not worry about relegation, you can see my boys are in high spirits to ensure this is done," Babu told Citizen Digital.

The Millers are placed second on the Football Kenya Federation Premier league log with 18 points after nine rounds played so far, just one point behind leaders Tusker who are on 19 after eight rounds.
