Gor Mahia coach Hassan Oktay defends Odhoji and blames poor finishing

Gor Mahia coach Hassan Oktay has come to the defence of keeper Shaban Odhoji after a poor display against KCB on Thursday.

The Kenyan champions were forced to battle from three goals down to force a 3-3 draw and snatch a vital point that increased their chances of retaining the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) title.

However, keeper Odhoji, who has been preferred in recent weeks to start ahead of first choice Boniface Oluoch, was at fault for the first and second goals but coach Oktay says he is not the type of coach who blames players when results go wrong.
