Caf Confederation Cup: Gor Mahia players should be proud despite exit – Polack

Steven Polack has called on Gor Mahia to walk with their heads held high despite exiting the Caf Confederation Cup following a two-legged defeat to Napsa Stars on Sunday.

The Kenyan champions headed into the return leg with a lot of difficulties, as they only arrived in Zambia two hours before match kick-off and headed straight to National Heroes Stadium in Lusaka.

Despite failing to reach the group stage, Polack, who handled Gor Mahia in the 2019-20 season, has praised the players’ character and for showing a good reaction after losing the first leg at home.

“The players showed a good reaction after losing the first leg but to lose over the two legs on a penalty in the last minute must be very disappointing for the players and supporters,” Polack told Goal from his base in England.
