AFC Leopards coach Fred Ambani has urged his players to focus on delivering results as the club targets an end to its nearly 30-year wait for the league title.Ingwe will launch their season against Bandari on Wednesday after their opening fixture was pushed back amid legal disputes that delayed the start of the 2026-2027 campaign by almost two months.##NAJAVA_MECA_10017427##The match, originally scheduled for Sunday at Nyayo National Stadium, has been moved to the Police Sacco Grounds. Kick-off remains at 4 pm.With the wait for competitive action finally over, Ambani wants his squad to put the disruption behind them and concentrate on making an immediate impact rather than dwelling on the circumstances surrounding the delayed start.“We have to start the season with the right mentality. The delay affected everyone, but we cannot keep looking back at what has happened. We have to concentrate on the work ahead of us and make sure we are ready to compete from the first whistle,” he said in an interview with The Star.Massive boost for Tusker as trio is registered ahead of Singida Black Stars contestAmbani has also been fine-tuning his team's tactical approach, particularly its ability to remain organised when possession changes hands. The Leopards coach wants his side to dictate proceedings while maintaining the defensive discipline needed to prevent opponents from capitalising on mistakes.“We have worked on our organisation, especially when we lose possession, because these are the moments that can decide a match. We want to control the game, but we must also be responsible defensively and avoid giving the opponent unnecessary opportunities,” Ambani said.The coach has identified finishing as another area requiring improvement, urging his players to be more effective in front of goal against a Bandari side expected to adopt a compact defensive approach.Harambee Stars forward in La Liga action as prospect bags Bundesliga assistFor Ambani, creating opportunities will count for little unless Leopards can convert them, making composure and sound decision-making in the attacking third essential as they pursue all three points.“We know that creating chances is important, but taking them is what wins matches. We have been working on our decision-making in the final third, and the players must show patience rather than rush things when the opportunity comes,” he said.Last season, Ingwe finished second in the league behind their eternal rivals, Gor Mahia.Yanga coach on how Harambee Stars midfielder's injury triggered Kariokor Derby loss
