Simba wa Nairobi came from behind to beat AFC Leopards 2-1 to secure their Premier League status.

Nairobi City Stars midfielder Vincent Owino believes that his side must become more consistent at finishing teams off following their spirited 2-1 win over AFC Leopards on Monday afternoon.

Speaking to the club's website, Owino reflected on recent games where Simba wa Nairobi played well but failed to win, thus keeping them in the relegation battle.

“As a team, we are working on how we will utilize our chances to score more goals. Lately, we’ve been creating many chances but we fail to utilize them,” Owino said.

“According to our previous matches against Tusker, Ulinzi, and Bandari, we played well as a team. We also defended well and we also attacked well. We created the chances but we failed to execute them forcing us to take home one point.”

Owino joined Simba wa Nairobi in the mid-season transfer window back in March from fellow Premier League side FC Talanta.

He has so far featured in 11 games clocking 975 minutes on his way to completing eight games. He has scored three goals, and provided two direct assists and four-second assists.

City Stars are 15th on 33 points with the win over AFC Leopards securing their top-flight status for another season after battling relegation for a majority of the campaign.
