Gor Mahia’s Head Coach Vaz Pinto Resigns

In an interview conducted earlier, the Portuguese cited personal reasons and the ‘difficult times’ at the club as the reasons that have led his move though unconfirmed reports indicate he could have been tapped by CD National, a second-tier club in his motherland.

Vaz Pinto joined Gor Mahia at the beginning of this term and guided the club to an FKF Cup title last week beating AFC Leopards in the post-match penalties after a draw in regular time to ensure KÓgalo will feature in the continental football for the seventh season in a row.

Besides the cup title, Pinto leaves having guided Gor Mahia to position 4 on the 18 teams FKF-Premier League table having accumulated 39 points from 23 games, therefore, lying behind table leaders Tusker(50), KCB(46), and AFC Leopards on 43.

His resignation will further shake the club that had hoped to build on the cup's success to challenge for the gong.
