    Elvis Noor: We aim for a good finish

    As the 2022/23 FKF Premier League bends a corner to its finish, midfielder Elvis Noor Ojiambo reflects on Nairobi City Stars’ season so far.

    While admitting that there was little to write home about in the first leg, Elvis points out to an improved second leg and is optimistic the finish will be much better.

    “My season has had ups and downs but I won’t complain because that is the nature of football,” said Elvis

    “We have worked much better as a team to achieve better results compared to the frst leg where we were a little shaky,”

    “Even then, the results we are posting are not exactly what we wanted, but we are giving our all. We hope to perform much better in the remaining fixtures.” he added

    Elvis has featured in 23 of the 30 league games played this season clocking 1,269 minutes which is a great step-up from the 14 of 33 games and 635 minutes earned last season.
