Gor Mahia win record 21st FKF Premier League title

Kenya Police FC were the main challengers for the title but their loss to Tusker on Saturday meant that Gor Mahia needed one point in their last four matches to be crowned champions.

Gor Mahia have now qualified for next season’s CAF Champions League; a feat which they surrendered last season after they failed to comply with club licensing requirements.

K’Ogalo were awarded a penalty in the 42nd minute and Omala stepped in but failed to convert the spot-kick as he sent the ball over the bar.

The former Western Stima man made amends two minutes later when he received a pass from inside the box before firing the ball into the empty net.

The second half was more lively compared to the opening stanza as Muhoroni found it difficult to unlock a resolute Gor Mahia defence.

K’Ogalo managed to extend their lead in the 48th minute when Boniface Omondi rushed to the ball and made it 2-0.

The visitors squandered half-chances at the other end of the pitch as Muhoroni grew increasingly frustrated.

Adebowale Samuel beat his marker inside the hosts’ box, but he was superbly denied by goalkeeper Kevin Omondi.

Muhoroni continued to push for their first goal of the match but they were leaving spaces behind their defence and they were punished by Austin Odhiambo who made it 3-0 with Ronny Onyango providing the assist.

Gor Mahia eased off the throttle somewhat and nearly added a fourth in the 80th minute when Wangai provided a low cross from the right which was Patrick Kaddu failed to convert.
