Sofapaka team manager Hillary Echesa has urged his players to focus on ending their long trophy drought as they face off with Bungoma Superstars in today’s SportPesa Shield round of 32 knockout tie at Sudi Stadium.

Batoto Ba Mungu, currently at the top of the SportPesa Premier League table with 33 points, last won the domestic Cup in 2014 when they beat Posta Rangers 2-1 in the final. This was just five years after winning the league title on their debut.
