FKFPL Analysis : How Kayci Odhiambo can be AFC Leopards' John Stones in a hybrid midfield-center back role
Man City manager Pep Guardiola has been using John Stones in a hybrid midfield-center back role. Given Kayci is a midfielder-cum center back at AFC Leopards, could he be Tomas Trucha's version of the English defender at the club?
Muhoroni pushed forward in numbers with their coach Charles Odero having introduced Maxwell Otieno and Benson Ngereso.
The visitors were left vulnerable at the back and they were nearly punished by Alex Onchwiri, who was sent through on goal in the 76th minute.
However, the former Zoo man was brilliantly denied by Opondo from a one-on-one situation and Tusker survived a scare.
