The fans have been with us both in good and in bad times. It is our time to reward them and I have faith that come Sunday, we will be placing the Top 8 title in our cabinet,\u201d Jerim told Michezoafrika.com.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very happy to be in the finals and we have a point to prove that we are also capable of winning this trophy and we could have also won it last year. Every player is focused on that final. We know Ulinzi is a quality side and we expect a tough match. However,we are equally prepared for them,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n<p>Gor Mahia will go into the match having easily overcome Tusker 4-0 on aggregate in the semi finals. They were awarded a walk over when AFC leopards boycotted their first round match.<\/p>\n<p>Ulinzi on the other hand have been made to struggle by two sugar belt teams in their journey to the final. They won 3-1 on post match penalties against Chemelil Sugar before winning 3-2 on aggregate against Sony in the Semi Finals.<\/p>\n<p>Ulinzi beat the green army 1-0 in their league match in the first leg and Zdravko Logarusic\u2019s charges will be out to extinguish the flames of the first leg loss with a creamy win in the Top 8 Finals.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/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\/845\/\"\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>Courtesy of michezoafrika.com Gor Mahia skipper Jerry Onyango is full of confidence that his team will win its first silverware<\/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":[],"class_list":["post-845","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/845","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=845"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/845\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=845"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=845"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
