After the International break, another weekend crowded with TPL events is here with us and our focus as usual is on Gor Mahia and may be other ‘worthy’ title chasers. City Stadium will be the place to be on Saturday to witness Gor Mahia sorting out their differences with Karuturi Sports. Apart from the few Gor players who were involved in International duty, the rest of the team have been busy hitting the training ground with all the seriousness and concentration needed. Looking at the past five league matches for both teams, a lot can be discussed considering their match…
Gor Mahia kept their FKF Cup defending ambitions alive after seeing off hard fighting Muhoroni Youth 4-2 albeit on post match penalties, at the city stadium on Sunday afternoon.
