Kenya: Sofapaka edge Kakamega Homeboyz at Kasarani Annex

Sofapaka beat visiting side Kakamega Homeboyz 3-1 in a Football Kenya Federation Premier League midweek action staged at Kasarani Annex on Thursday.

Goals either half by Roddy Manga, Sébastine Sunday, and Simon Abuko were all that the home side needed to beat Homeboyz.

Manga scored a quick goal in the opening minute of the match. The striker made no mistakes pouncing on Ben Stanley’s delivery to the head against past Homeboyz custodian Babu.

At the quarter, Sofapaka came close to doubling their lead through Alex Imbusia. The striker collected Ben Stanley’s pass, but his shot went a few inches wide.

At the hour mark, the visitors had a glorious opportunity to level the scores through Moses Mudavadi, but Roddy Manga reacted just in time to intercept the midfielder’s effort.

Five minutes before the break, the 2009 KPL champions had another chance to double their lead through Roddy Manga. The striker was once again put through on goal by Ben Stanley, but he failed to direct his header into an empty net from the near post.

Ten minutes after restarting for the final half, Sofapaka got their second goal through Sébastine Sunday. The midfielder sneaked through the crowd to head the ball home at the near post from Ben Stanley’s corner kick delivery.

With a quarter hour to play, the visitors pulled a goal back in the match through Michael Karamor. The striker made no mistakes in his spot-slotting in the past, says Simon Masaka.

Ten minutes from time, Sofapaka extended their lead through Simon Abuko. The forward took no chances from the spot, putting the ball beyond goalkeeper Babu after Ben Stanley was brought down in the penalty area by Collins Odhiambo, as Sofapaka  held on for maximum points.

Kenya: Mathare United face AFC Leopards in captivating FKF Premier League round 19 fixtures

Struggling Mathare United will face title contenders AFC Leopards on Sunday in FKF Premier League round 19 match.

The Slum Boys will welcome the 1998 Kenyan Premier League champions at Kasarani Stadium in what promises to be a thriller.

Mathare United handed league leaders Gor Mahia their second loss of the season, in a match where most had written them off.

Will the same fate befall Gor’s in-laws, AFC Leopards, on Sunday?

Gor Mahia will host Bidco United at Nyayo Stadium, and with the race for the title getting tighter, a slip could see them lose the top spot.

KCB have played themselves into title contention and on Sunday they will face Kariobangi Sharks. The first leg between these two teams was one of the most intense and exciting games of the season, an end-to-end attacking contest that the bankers edged 2-1. Sharks will have revenge on their minds on Sunday.

Nzoia Sugar and Tusker are tied on 34 points.

Tusker have staggered back to life and Nzoia keep refusing to leave the top spots. Will Tusker claim three points against FC Talanta and put pressure on Gor?

Nzoia travel to face Bandari at Mbaraki stadium. If they leave Mombasa with a result, they remain in the title mix.
