Sofapaka coach John Baraza has welcomed the Round of 16 draw for the FKF Shield Cup where they have been pitted to face Bandari.
Sofapaka had to fight tooth and nail before eliminating minnows EPZ Balaji on penalties while Bandari won 2-0 against KSG Ogopa in their Round of 32 matches.
The two Kenyan Premier League (KPL) sides have now been pitted to face each other in the Round of 16 and Batoto ba Mungu coach Baraza says they are looking forward to the tough but must-win fixture.
