Omondi, who was excommunicated from the Harambee Stars camp in the last international break, played the entire 90 minutes but could not help UTA prevent drawing against U Cluj.
Deposed Harambee Stars midfielder Eric Johana Omondi played the full 90 minutes but could not inspire UTA Arad to get the victory against U Cluj in a relegation mini-Romanian league clash that took place on Saturday night.
Omondi, who was sent packing by head coach Engin Firat for being involved in a brawl with Aboud Omar during the recent international break, did try to be front footed, but it was not enough to turn the draw into a win.
Omondi’s work off the ball was actually more outstanding as he won five of his six ground duels, and won his solitary aerial duel, but it was one of those matches where he could not create much, having touched the ball 41 times from the flanks.
