Kariobangi Sharks captain Erick Juma is hopeful the Kenyan Premier League title is theirs’ to lose should they replicate their last week’s SportPesa Cup exploits in the remaining rounds of the 2018-2019 season. The title guarantees them a ticket to host English Premier League side, Everton in a friendly match later in the year. Juma believes the spirited performance in Tanzania is enough to guarantee them the league title in their third attempt, having missed it in the previous two seasons since their elevation to the top flight in 2017. “We stand a chance of winning the league should as long as we replicate the SportPesa Cup displays in the league,” said Juma. “The teamwork and individual brilliance was commendable and if we put the same in the league, then we will emerge the league champions.
