They (Gor Mahia) were a joy to watch. They deserve to be in the final and I don\u2019t think they will be stopped now,&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>His counterpart Frank Nuttall credited his team&#8217;s team-work and commitment for the victory.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are happy to be unbeaten and to make sure we won the game today. We were well organized and prepared coming into the game. We were a little disappointed to concede the early goal but we knew we would score.\u00a0 People and individuals make headlines but it is always all about team work&#8221; said Nuttal.<\/p>\n<p>It has indeed been a superb effort with different players stepping forward to play crucial roles. Though Olunga may get much credit, players like Aucho, Wafula, Sibomana, Shakava and Walusimbi have been superb in the last two games. Many will say that it is the forward line that carries the team but of late the entire unit has been hitting on all cylinders.<\/p>\n<p>FKF chair Sam Nyamweya for his part has announced that the federation will reward Gor Mahia with Ksh 250,000 should they win the torunament.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to confirm that we will reward Gor Mahia with Sh250, 000 if they emerge winners of the competition.\u00a0As we await the final match we join hands with all other Kenyan fans in supporting the team as it aims to clinch this year\u2019s trophy.\u201d he said according to goal.com<\/p>\n<p>President Kenyatta also joined in congratulating Gor Mahia via his twitter handle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Well played #GorMahia. Congratulations for reaching the finals of the #CECAFAKagameCup. Best of luck as you prepare to win in the finals.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>It will be remembered that the president facilitated return tickets for the club after FKF declined to provide them.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/news\/ghanas-world-cup-coach-admits-kogalo-are-a-class-above\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>James Kwesi Appiah, the Ghanaian coach who steered Ghana to qualification of the 2014 world cup with a memorable 6-1<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[367,368],"class_list":["post-7149","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-2015-cecafa-cup","tag-2015-kagame-cup"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7149","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7149"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7149\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7153,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7149\/revisions\/7153"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7149"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7149"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7149"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
