Gor Mahia coach on Sibomana

Regarding Patrick Sibomana, McKinstry explained that Sibomana experienced a minor issue in his back while attempting to cross the ball.

It wasn’t a significant groin or hamstring problem, but as a precaution, they decided to substitute him.

“Patrick Sibomana felt a little tweak in his back when he whipped in a cross. It wasn’t like a groin or hamstring. We felt it was better to bring him off,” McKinstry revealed.

As for Roger Mugisha, the coach revealed that initial assessments pointed toward a hamstring injury. However, Mugisha will undergo further tests to determine the extent of the injury. McKinstry expressed hope that the player’s recovery period will not be too extended.

“For Roger, it looks like a hamstring, we will have the swelling assessed, and we send the best wishes to the player, hoping it won’t keep him sidelined for too long,” McKinstry said.
