Tusker FC and Gor Mahia will be waiting until the final day over the weekend to know the champion of Kenya Premier League title.
Today, Gor under Jonathan McKinstry lost 3-2 to Kakamega Homeboyz at Moi Stadium, Kasarani to slow down their chances of winning in the penultimate stage of the league.
Shafik Kagimu headed in the lead for Gor in the 12th minute before Ambrose Sifuna leveled in the 38th minute. Gor reclaimed the lead in the 47th minute when Odhiambo burnt a hole in the net with a rasping shot after latching on to James Macharia’s pass on the edge of the box.
However, Kevin Amwayi ruined K’Ogalo’s party shortly thereafter with a 56th-minute equaliser. The defeat narrowed the gap between K’Ogalo and second-placed Tusker to a solitary point.
Wednesday’s outcome has Gor at the apex of the log with 67 points, one better than defending champions Tusker who rallied from behind to play out a one-all draw against Posta Rangers at the Ruaraka Complex.
Elsewhere, Bandari beat Kariobangi Sharks 1-0 at Mbaraki grounds in Mombasa. Wazito kept their survival hopes alive with a slim 1-0 win over Bidco United at Thika Stadium.
Sofapaka heaped more misery on AFC Leopards after edging them 1-0 at Nyayo Stadium.
Nzoia Sugar’s aspirations for a maiden topflight title suffered a major setback after crashing 2-0 to KCB at Sudi Stadium as Mathare United and Ulinzi Stars played out a one-all draw. Police FC hammered VihigaBullets 4-1 at the Police Sacco stadium.
