Gor Mahia coach Zdravko Logarusic is excited at the prospect of facing off with Jan Koops on Saturday in the semi-finals of the Football Kenya Federation Cup.
The match will be played at the Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani and will be the third time the two giants of Kenyan football are meeting.
The two sides drew 0-0 in the first leg of the league while Logarusic had the last laugh in the second leg when he conjured up a 2-1 win. Now he says he wants to do a double on Leopards.
“I know Leopards are going to come at us hard. They have missed the league title just like us and they will be taking this game with utmost seriousness because they want to end the season with something,” said Logarusic.
Koops says he will be fielding a strong team for the game that he said will be a good outing for fans.
The two teams are meeting on the back of failure to win the league title last weekend. Leopards were beaten 1-0 by Chemelil in Awendo while Gor Mahia drew one-all with Thika United clearing the way for Tusker to take the title after they beat City Stars 3-0.
The results have had some ripple effect. Leopards players exchanged bitter words on the team bus on their way back to Nairobi blaming each other for the failure to win the league while at Gor Mahia there were differences between the Logarusic and team manager Tom Ogweno.
The club said they will amicably sort out the problem.
