Gor Mahia have been unstoppable in their recent run of form, remaining unbeaten in six consecutive games following their opening day defeat. Ghanaian midfielder Enock Morrison has opened up on the factors behind the team’s resurgence, attributing their success to belief, unity, and hard work rather than pressure.
Since joining Gor Mahia in 2024, Morrison has been a standout performer in midfield, earning praise for his consistent displays and becoming a vital presence for the team. He has played in every match since the opening day loss, helping the team secure four wins and a draw in their last five outings, placing them second in the league with 13 points.
Following a 2-0 victory over Mathare United, Morrison emphasized that the team thrives in a positive environment where confidence, rather than pressure, drives performance. “When you keep winning, everyone is happy — the supporters are happy. You’re not under any pressure because everything feels positive,” Morrison said. “In fact, the teams coming to play us are the ones under pressure because we defend well and play well.”
Morrison also highlighted the team’s strength in maintaining concentration, particularly in the second half of matches. “Everyone has energy at the start, but as the game progresses, we become stronger and more physical than our opponents. That’s why we win. It’s not about any special game plan; it’s about staying focused,” he explained.
Under the guidance of new head coach Charles Akonnor, appointed in August 2025, Gor Mahia have regained discipline, tactical awareness, and a winning mentality. Morrison’s leadership in midfield, combined with the impact of new signings and bench contributors like Austin Odhiambo, Alpha Onyango, and Ben Stanley, has kept the team sharp in attack while maintaining defensive solidity.
Morrison believes the team’s recent performances reflect growing confidence and cohesion, suggesting that Gor Mahia are becoming a formidable force in the SportPesa Premier League. If the current momentum continues, Akonnor’s side could emerge as the team to beat in the title race.
