Leopards draw with minnows
By NATION Team
AFC Leopards 1 Red Berets 1
Fighting to avoid relegation, Red Berets held top contenders
AFC Leopards to a 1-1 draw in a Premier League encounter at Thika leaving
Leopards. Fans called for coach Patrick Naggi's sacking.
Francis Oduor scored Leopards' goal in the seventh minute with
Clifford Arita denying Leopards maximum gain with a 55th minute equaliser.
KCB 3 Brooke Bond 0
Kenya Commercial Bank increased Brooke Bond's relegation worries
with a 3-0 win at the City Stadium.
Alphonse Oloo scored a double with veteran defender Hezekiah Shikanda
adding the third to leave Brooke Bond in the relegation zone.
Utalii 2 Re-Union 0
Re-Union too failed to better their chances of surviving
in next year's league as they watched Utalii score a goal in each half
to win this city derby 2-0.
Elkanah Swakah scored the first goal for Utalii in the 35th minute
with Gilbert Obonyo adding the second in the 67th.
Eldoret FC 2 Ulinzi 1
Veteran Andrew Khaemba scored a double as Eldoret FC hit
Ulinzi 2-1 in a middle-of-the-table match at Kipchoge Keino Stadium.
Khaemba scored in the fifth and 47th minutes with David Wanyoike
drawing one back from the penalty spot after an Ulinzi player was fouled
in the box.
Kisumu All Stars made good their threat not to travel to Mumias
Complex yesterday for their Premier League match against title contenders
Mumias Sugar.
The packed stadium, match officials and Mumias players waited
in vain before the Kisumu side was declared a no-show.
On Friday, All Stars hit at the Kenya Football Federation for
altering their earlier fixture against Mathare United at Kisumu scheduled
for yesterday.
This is the third time the bottom of the table side has failed
to honour a league fixture having previously done so against AFC Leopards
and Gor Mahia.
