In Okumbi&#8217;s mind, Kahata was the engine of the team on Sunday driving forward and creating numerous chances.<br \/>\n&#8220;Kahata played so well created many chances and I am happy with him.&#8221; said Okumbi to futaa.com<\/p>\n<p>Indeed Kahata likely registered more passes than anyone unlike the other members of the midfield who were less impressive. Johannah and Timbe scored but they have been accused of playing very selfishly as was Paul Were. Two of these players are transfer targets of Gor Mahia. The price tag that Bob Munro has put on Johannah is said to be Ksh 10 million. It must be said that Johannah&#8217;s lob over the advancing Congo goalkeeper was impressive.<\/p>\n<p>Okumbi did not field Kahata in his first two matches against Guinea Bissau and must be regretting it.<\/p>\n<p>Ninteen year old Eric Ouma, earned his first cap and passed the test with flying colours. He was solid in defence, not allowing anything through. None other skipper Victor Wanyama was impressed.<br \/>\nHe had a good game and showed maturity despite his age said Wanyama to capital FM<\/p>\n<p>Kogalo officials are in the midst of trying to convince Marcelo to sign a two year deal.<\/p>\n<p>Rwanda striker Jacque Tuyisenge carried over his goal-scoring form to the international arena. He scored twice but was unable to prevent Rwanda from losing 3-2. Abouba Sibomana also played 90 minutes in that match.<\/p>\n<p>Khalid Aucho was the hero\u00a0of the day for Uganda. he scored\u00a0the winning goal that enabled Uganda to beat Botwana 2-1 away from home. Geoffrey\u00a0Walusimbi was\u00a0a second half substitute.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile Muhoroni Youth defender Wellington Ochieng, who is being pursued by Kogalo has\u00a0himself\u00a0expressed interest in joining the club.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAccording to the information I received from the chairman (Adagala), all is going on well and I am sure that Gor Mahia will be my club in second leg. 70% of the deal is basically done because the two clubs are slowly agreeing on the transfer cash,\u201d Ochieng&#8217; told goal.com<br \/>\nGor Mahia have offered Ksh 500,000 as transfer fee while Muhoroni Youth want Ksh 2 million. The two clubs have to meet in the middle<\/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\/rave-reviews-for-gor-mahia-players-in-international-action\/\"\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>National team coach Stanley Okumbi is thoroughly impressed with Gor Mahia midfield ace Francis Kahata.
