'My players are not insane to frame racism claims' - Yakhama alleges Vihiga United players were verbally abused

The official has further revealed how the Simba wa Nairobi coach came to apologise after the game

Vihiga United Technical Director Nick Yakhama insists his players are not 'insane' to accuse Nairobi City Stars coach Sanjin Alagic of calling them by a racially offensive word.

United coach Sammy Okoth told Goal his Bosnian adversary used the racial slur towards his players after the hosts fell behind in the 1-1 draw, and the visitors duly had to be talked out of boycotting the match after being alerted to Alagic's alleged comments.

The Nairobi-based side defended the accusations, asking for a thorough investigation on the matter.
