FC Talanta striker Emmanuel Osoro, who is leading the FKF Premier League Golden Boot race, has shared why he is finding it easy to score past the big teams.
Emmanuel Osoro has quietly moved to the top of the FKF Premier League scorers’ chart and he has done that by hurting some of the country’s top sides.
Osoro’s latest giant-killing act came on Wednesday when his two goals downed Tusker FC, putting a dent in the brewers’ title hopes, while moving him top with 16, same as Moses Shumah of Kakamega Homeboyz, and one ahead of Ryan Ogam of Tusker.
The FC Talanta striker has been in terrific form with his goals also coming against Gor Mahia, Sofapaka and AFC Leopards, the latter getting embarrassed when he scored a brace, one pushed into the net by his backside in January.
