Onduparaka 2 Gor Mahia 0
Gor Mahia suffered a surprise 2-0 loss to Onduparaka of Uganda in the highly anticipated international friendly played at Namboole stadium in Kampala on Saturday. It is Gor Mahia’s third successive loss in the 2017 pre-season having lost to Al Hilal 0-1, Thika United 1-2 and now Onduparaka 0-2. The loss puts additional pressure on Brazilian tactician Ze Maria who has yet to convince Kogalo supporters since his arrival in February of 2016.
Additional reporting from Kawowo sports
Forward, Living Kabon scored twice to ensure the Ugandan outfit tamed Zee Maria’s Gor Mahia in an international friendly played on Saturday evening in Kampala, Uganda.
Despite the downpour that preceded the highly anticipated piece of action, the game still managed a sizeable crowd at the Mandela National stadium.
In a game witnessed by former presidential candidate Rt. Col. Kiiza Besigye, Onduparaka stamped their authority in every aspect and were deserved winners.
Gor Mahia custodian Boniface Oluoch was to blame for Onduparaka’s opener as he failed to deal with a free kick.
The Kenyan international collected the ball from the net after fumbling with a free kick and gifting Kabon a tap-in which sent the home crowd into wild celebrations.
Kabon added another in the second half, only a minute after Onduparaka had been reduced to ten men.
Defender Gasper Adriko was shown a second yellow card for time wasting. Gaddafi Gadinho then found Kabon with a through pass on the counter attack before the forward rounded Oluoch to lash into an empty net.
Onduparaka were using the match as a build up to their start to the second round of the Uganda Premier League which resumes next week.
For Gor Mahia, the match was one of the means to prepare for the 2017 Kenya Premier League season as they look to regain league glory having lost the title to Tusker last season.
Head coach Leo Adraa named FUFA Player of the Year, Muhammed Shaban on the bench but didn’t use him citing a thigh injury the striker suffered at the AFCON tournament with Uganda Cranes.
Towering defender Rashid Toha had to be substituted late in the game due to an injury that will require tests if he is to feature in the team’s game with Proline on Wednesday.
Onduparaka are third on the Uganda Premier League log and will be hoping to put up performances similar to that against Gor Mahia.
Onduparaka starting XI: Richard Anyama, Adriko Gasper, Saddam Norman, Akram Kakembo, Rashid Toha, Ivan Mbowa, Faizal Ibrahim Anini, Gaddafi Gadinho, Fahad Muhammad Tokko, Ceasar Okhuti, Kabon ‘Messi’ Living
Gor Mahia starting XI: Boniface Oluoch,Abdul Karim Nzigimana,Mike Simiyu,Musa Muhammad, Joash Onyango,Collins Okoth,Kenneth Muguna,Jean Baptiste Mugiraneza,Francis Kahata,Jacques Tuyisenge,Timothy Otieno
Haya another friendly
Not suprise.?it was expected. Ondupierpaka played 10 men, we still lost…..speaks a lot.
Hope w8r have learnt something from the friendlies
Team pod jell
Oh guys,but you know teams always play negative football and pack the defence when meeting GM.Not forgetting they give 110%. Just be patient guys. Even Liverpool lost to Hull City. Kingdom guards choir,please continue the song, sing please sing!
Hehehe..if they pack and give 110% which Ze Maria and his clueless sycophants tell us everytime we draw or lose, then we should not expect any wins and would rather stop playing all together
I don’t mean to defend the coach but lets wait for the real competition to kick off then we can really judge the team.
I agree with you 100% namesake.
Another Kichapo ? still firing blanks ? Ati more time to gel ? Still figuring out starting 11 ? …Same story as last season.
No, No ,No ! Ze Maria wuod obragado this time ‘ wich kuot ‘ has gone way too far. @ Albert Kosero, any match analysis and player ratings ?
Tuambiane ukweli;if they say Gor wasted chances then Tuyisenge will just give us heartaches till June.Why have two misfiring foreign strikers? I hope we will not be like last season;Hope Tuyisenge knows the way to the net
In pre season how many goals have our strikers scored assuming the mid was ok
Hahaha. Team podi jell indeed. This is shameful….but then what should one expect when we play two potential wingers in Timothy Otieno and Jausenge as our strikers? Ze Maria’s trial and error is taking us no where. It is high time that EC realized Ze Maria ain’t a tactician.
In pre season how many goals have our strikers scored assuming the mid was ok.I don’t want to be an alarmist but compare 30 yr old Laffor withTuyisenge or Kagere.Tuambiane ukweli
As much as some people want us not to criticize, these results speak volume about our team. No team goes into a match to lose, for me all matches are competitive, friendly or not. We are suppose to gauge our team with these friendlies and from the results I can say without fear of contradiction that there several weak links with our team and the weakest link could be the coach. Gor mahia fans must wake up and demand for results.
For those who hear no evil and see no evil, this is one of the rather obvious 3 outcomes in a game of football. They will now tell us that even Arsenal has lost to Chelsea. At this rate Maria mama with his “geniosity”(if such a word exists ) is still way below the “Politician”
Good players with a clueless coach. ze maria is not the right coach for a club of gor mania caliber, another season of draws and struggles!!!! oh my God.
Kila mtu na siku yake, 3 postings and none are uploaded yawa admin yawa hata kama ni moderation.Shida namba one ya GM ni chairman who is busy fighting “s/cat” battles with incredible zeal & gusto while he watched his team discouraged by a 3 points deduction courtesy of a similar boardroom decision,mara building a stadium,mara rushed to clandestinely renew the contract of a suspect coach (now wait for his royal guards to shamelessly tell us how we have to bear it out for a whole season with this coach because its too expensive to terminate his contract,oh FIFA will penalize us). I SAID IT ANY COACH THAT ALLOWS THE EC TO RECRUIT FOR HIM IS NOT WORTH HIS SALT. RESULT OF +8 YEARS OF BEING HOODWINKED BY LOCAL TITLES WHEN GM’S POTENTIAL IS MUCH HIGHER.FN SHOWED REGIONAL & CONTINENTAL AMBITIONS BUT THAT IS NOT EC’S GOAL SINCE IT WOULD LESSEN THE LOOT TO BE SHARED.ELECTIONS BILA ANY REPORT MUNACHESWA/TUNACHESWA. Any local title will only be meaningful if in 2018 GM makes regional & continental impact.
How does one defend this? Team pod gel? It was just pre season and it was not a must we win? The opponent is in mid season so are fitter? Screw those. I was one of the fiercest critics of the coach last season but was forced to tone down once he was given one or is it two more years since there is little i can do. But it seems all i can do is criticise since this coach does very little to inspire praise!!! He was being undermined by Ottamax, that was sorted, he wanted a squad of his own imprint, he got his wish, so what the hell is his excuse this time. Three matches and one goal which if you were at Toyoyo you will know came from the run of play. Sorry to compare this with our rivals for the title who have been banging goals abaramach.A team’s sharpness is seen in how many times it can hit the back of the net even if its against Embu Combined or Supaloaf. Tuyisenge is a 4 million striker and should have hit the net at least twice in preseason. We have a problem.
Why whining and crying for mid season games? If you guys are tired of supporting the team, get a walk and join any other premier league teams. Usesless fans with narrow minds and brains who are not even registered members of the club.
I am pissed off by reading cramps, garbage in garbage out from the demwit fans. Your postings just resemble your hooliganism behaviors.
Kindly tell me what i need to say next time so that am not a dimwit next time. And remember we stand at the end of our reflections!!!!
MY HOOLIGANISM MY CHOICE. Nincompoop.
Its same story training hard. Zemaria system can not work in afrika.The truth is Zimaria will not last.once Cptn said that at atime Zmaria taktik do fail and they resort to longball.kwa hivyo kuna shida kubwa.
Jaasego, daki iwuo? Your studious silence speaks volumes. Aneno ka dhano biro chamo ngwech. The bad news is that Ambrose Rachier has reserved all his strength, priorities, power, expertise in fighting Mwendwa. His own home is burning, and because he is in bad books with the chair, we are going to very heavily punished. Aketo wanga, ngwech biro. Wuod Maria has been given all the resources he requested for, and he got the, Wuod Asego, what is the problem now?
Ze Maria onge gimi ongeyo owadwa…Even given Chelsea in its current state and form he can take it nowhere
@Musyoma, I like the way you’ve ended it, ” we have a problem”
And a big problem indeed and am sure we now know where the problem lies
Problem with Ondurapaka,El Hilal and Thika United is they didn’t “have a positive approach like Ulinzi”.Remember Ze Maria’s comments after a rare victory against Ulinzi in Sep16.Let’s hope that more if not all our opponents will FROM NOW ONWARDS adopt a “positive approach” so that Ze Maria can win and appreciate them.
bring back Frank Natull..
We will deduct 6 points should any hooliganism occur in any of Gor Mahia games and you will be relegated should you guys cause any disturbances during all your games.
You’ve met your match in Elly Kalekwa & Adagala.Prezda has already booked a flight to FIFA and will prove “Mpira haichezwi kwa boardroom” Stop boasting & be ready to eat humble pie.FKF has no money and needs until April to TRY & raise cash for expanding the league.NOW THERE’S A TOTAL DIMWIT.Why does’nt FKF,including fake ones like you,produce the list of sofapaka unpaid players who complained and the amounts.Similarly its only using your quack laws and the vested interests of our EC that let the 3 points deduction pass.Believe me that was the first & last time.The Ugandan football authorities don’t even recognize FKF’s fake River Road generated licences as Gor Mahia has just discovered. Yours are just empty threats.
Try and you will see the full force of rules and regulations being applied retrogressively. We will set example with Gor Mahis.
Can you go concentrate on refurbishing stadia in readiness for Chan 2018 that you seem rudder less on achieving.Furthermore who told you we need federation advisors to issue useless threats on this blog like you are doing?Wea have you been all along to appear today with threats and propaganda based on Nick Mwendwa and Ambrose Rachier fights over league composition?You are no FKF Official Mr and neither are we intimidated by your veiled hogwash on victimizing our beloved team so keep off?Oduor12 magi tango ni FKF Chietha…
Watch this space,just try and deduct Gor Mahia points again.I am telling you for free we will “sack” your friend Ze Maria the same way we did Zico etc and you can hire him (bet you’ll still cry to GM to help you pay & house him) to coach harambee stars or even starlets.The only reason why KPL is giving FKF such a hard time is because KPL has the money while FKF has none.FKF is rendered a toothless bulldog because despite all the authority vested in it by FIFA & CAF,it simply has no money to run a premier league.Not even a single cent,until FKF has no option but to forego a grant from the same KPL,yet you insist on expanding the league. I REPEAT THERE’S A TOTAL DIMWIT.
THANK GOD that we may not get to know you coz of the pseudonyms. We can deal with you perpendicularly. You may need to be walking around in a helmet. MORON.
Team podi gel!
Only Tok Komwanda can save us. The pressure we exert on the boys will make them perform. Kama ni Nyayo and Kasarani and away games, then we will see so many draws.
The issue here i think is tiki taka vs a very physical approach used regionally. Having watched the African Cup of Nations, i have realised that most teams are really physical. Burkina, Cameroon and the likes. The current Gor seems a little soft. That’s why Ochomo was the leading scorer until he started his shenanigans. The boys must play hard and Ze Maria must come up with a hybrid tiki taka that can manage local opponents.
when will that be? Next year?
@ villager, good observation. First mistake ze maria made was that he has no local coach to work with him to understand local football. He would rather pick fights with jodala in the name of sabotage. Now see what is happening in the absence of jodala ? Where is ogweno ? Where is ottamax ? …
How can previous kogallo coaches worked so well with local coaches including FN , the politician ?
Secondly, he rushes and appoints brazil assistant coach and fitness coach – expensively assembled and probably in Africa for holidays. I repeat …Tiki taka is not African football and will never be . You take your tiki taka style of play to meru combined as others would put it , you can be sure you will take a beating. Did ze maria actually watch all this new recruits before signing ? Or who did he delegate this work to and what was the criteria ?
The problem with this coach and jobrazil camp is that they believe get rid of jodala and instill tiki taka and it will eventually work not forgetting that this is Africa and our style of play is different . ..different from their wildest possible imaginations !
I have nothing against Brazilians but we must insist before the league starts that a local coach must be brought on board at senior level othwrwise the ship will only sink further and the new recruits will all be offloaded come June.
Hehehe, Jakoyo kik ayudi jadala maobet to welo ochung’. Jodala mondo oweni welo kombe!
i think its time we call a spade a spade..Ze maria isnt yhe rght coach for Gor mahia fc and the earlier we smell the coffee the better!
Ze Maria should be sent on loan to Palos as on assistant coach. Absolutely bure.
Can someone explain to me like a baby, in Africa any club or National team for that matter which is currently coached by a Brazilian,coz I can only recall that guy whom coached s.Africa sometimes back but never achieved much. My quiz,at the time Mugabe and co.was contracting this guy did they look really how the Brazilian coaches has performed or is performing in Africa leave alone in modern football? Was his track record worth? My opinion, if indeed we need a foreign coach let Mugabe turn Europe and bcoz maria has a running contract let him handle youth team for his remaining period where sijui tiki takata can be helpful to the youths in early development otherwise don’t be surprise heart attack will be real
Hehehe..barefoot bandit, listen to the lyrics ‘nobed wich kuot’ by DO Misiani.
Jakoyo honestly do you think a Brazilian team coached by Brazilian can hold this world cup trophy any soon?
I Jasego finish this argument thus….Why should one accept international friendly matches and go ahead lose miserably in front of it ternational media?Doesn’t he know it lowers the profile and status of GMFC?The same international friendly matches are the reason our national team is currently sitting in a decent position in fifa rankings.And is it a must for a team to lose all pre-season matches even tusker best the same thika that in turn beat us.Ze Maria is at best mediocre and I can now see cutting him slack last season was the worst mistake as he is proving to be a nondescript dimwitted coach as a purported FKF Official here is busy abusing Gor fans with innuendo’s and threats that are at best Hogwash and Nonsense.Will you Deduct 6 points Mag minu?
Onduparaka that emulated Gor with demigod status must be now laughing saying they have felled a giant.We continously appear as a small team that is just overrrated locally but cannot stand it’s own.Nuttal left us with regional clout that has since faded and even locally teams are unfazed by gor threat anymore.Soon we will join the memories of yesteryears that is all Ingwe depend on when you read ati Kevin Kimani joins Kenyan giants…What criteria can be used to call Afc Leopards of nowadays a Giant?A team escaping relegation and competing for no title can be no giant and we at GM must watch out lest all we remain with be our name associated with past glory days
Habari ndio hiyo. Let him be man enough to reveal who he is,Fracture of his Skull pap. Hatutakangi ujinga.
Admin, be brave enough and write a deserving headline. I expected something like ’10-man Onduparaka humuliates Kogallo 2 – 0 in Uganda’. You always write such headings when Gor survives against Butterfly FC or some Horticulture FC of a team.
On the same note, don’t hand fans over to Futaa.com to give us the news of our inglorious defeat, just give us the whole news. The game ended 6 hours ago, feel brave enough to post it here.
Mr Chairman and the EC officials do not wait for so long to act against this blank firing coach he plays boring football and more so waste the talents ,if he cannot utilize properly the star studded Gormahia squad then …..?. I offer him a cane cutting job in my county
Hehehe. Maria mama my mum’s namesake anatuaibisha sana.
Since mr AR has decided to chair his “federation” instead of running the club then give the great club a cEo to run this club while u constipate in mwendas name . is this season already a planned beating .Help us God….
Ze Maria is another twat ,he is not gor mahia type of coach .
i wonder how our EC reasons you sack Nuttal who was performing ati he is expensive.u bring zé maria n his 2 brothers is that expensive.we expect gor to score when we dnt hv strikers unless u want midfielders to Be strikers gor has 3 strikers only teddy osok, blackberry n timothy.kagere ,tuyisenge r all mids .u lone jobita drop keli n agwanda .how do we score.its either we bring back Nuttal or tuende nyasi
Tulete Bob oyugi back, mapema Sana. Kama jana
And relegate Ze Maria to Gor youth team, like abandu did to Koops. Bob Oyugi promoted to senior coach, your take Jasego?
AOL Jamriambo gi Ze Maria
@fkf official, go and make your own blog and discuss your hatred towards GM, sasa tukikutusi mbwa hii utasema sisi ni wabaya, go and finish washing dishes at home ndo uje utugurumie hapa pahali hauonekani, God bless Gor na hatubanduki lakini coach Zemaria itabidi abanduke kukiendelea hivi, sisi
With Marcelo Ze Maria as a coach, we’re heading nowhere. Henry Omino should be given the job.
Quiet a disappointing result. But its not all over. There is still room for improvement. C’mon boys (players). We (the optimists) believe in you. You can do it. Yes you can do it.
Living in denial….tuko chini. Technicaly Sana.
Marto Original, the problem is not the boys, but a technically bankrupt coach. Bigoted for nothing and so horribly clueless.
Goal com reports that Rachier has scheduled a meeting next week to discuss Ze Maria’s performance among others. I will be fasting and praying but I don’t expect any earth shaking announcement!!! It will be more of we have given him more time to improve blah blah blah. By the time they realize it cannot work, the league will be gone. Watch this space!!!!
Bloggers I think it is time for Ze Maria to take a walk away from the club. He is just clueless and inept. You can’t loss three games and seems that everything is alright.
This coach is going to give us ulcers and let us get a good coach that will be able to read the game and bring the desired changes sch as patterns and systems of play.
Bring Frank Nuttal back.
Guys, i think the EC need to seriously check this performance issue seriously. What i don’t agree is rhat FN will esolve all our issues. If he is that food how comes he hasn’t fotten a team. Or was he wieed to coqch only Gor? There are enough good coaches from Serbia, Montenegro, etc who can do the job
No no no no it’s toooo much how long do they need to gel? the truth is Ze Maria doesn’t know how to motivate players he should know how to talk to players and give direction. The signing was good but……?
Methinks its over for Ze Maria & crew.When you analyse his unimpressive coaching career his second seasons are much worse compared to the first season.It would be a big risk/fatal mistake to give him more time.EC use the current tussle between KPL/FKF to get a replacement pronto. Don’t bring back Ogweno/Ottamax they were part of the failure.As for his replacement i suggest Ugandan Sam Timbe asap, the record winning CECAFA coach. 4 titles to his credit, knows our premier league well enough plus the CECAFA region to get us the best players. Luwere Ze Maria Luwere Nyasaye akulinde though you caused us much suffering.
