Wazito could be docked points for allegedly fielding an ineligible player

National Super League (NSL) side Kisumu All-Stars have appealed the 4-0 defeat against Wazito FC, claiming the latter team fielded a suspended player.

According to the Kisumu-based side, Teddy Osok was ineligible to play against them after accumulating a total of five yellow cards.

“They, Wazito, knew Osok was suspended because the federation had communicated the same earlier, but the player was still fielded. All we want is justice and that is why we have filed an appeal against Wazito. It is a straightforward case here,” Oduor told Goal in an interview.

When reached for comment, Wazito head coach Fred Ambani said that his team could not afford to make such a mistake at this level.
