FKFPL Pamzo's explanation for Shabana's poor run of league form
Pamzo has found the going difficult since joining the fabled former giants.
With Moses Shumah relegated on the bench for Homeboyz, Levis Barasa was given a run alongside Hilary Otieno while Glen Masava took over the playmaker role.
Meanwhile, AFC Leopards too made changes with the most notable change, being the exclusion of Rwanda international Arthur Gitego.
Going into the game, Leopards had scored just ten goals in seven games, and this saw them hungry for goals as they went onto the attack from the off.

FOOTBALL Nairobi City Stars captain reveals how plan to upset Gor Mahia backfired
Nairobi City Stars captain Calvin Masawa has admitted that Gor Mahia burst their bubble after they went into Saturday’s game seeking an upset only to end up on the losing side.
Ingwe captain Kayci Odhiambo had the game’s first chance in anger as he lined up a shot from outside the box but the youngster lacked his usual accuracy.
At the other end though, Homeboyz came within a whisker of a surprise early goal that would have excited a packed house as Barasa saw his attempt roll across the face of goal.
The opening stages were certainly a thrilling and open affair, and arguably the half’s best chance fell to Boniface Kweyu. The former Nzoia Sugar man was brilliantly set up by Jafari Owiti but his effort was too close to James Ssetuba, who made a good save.

FOOTBALL Kenya misses cut as Arsene Wenger reveals FIFA plans for African academies
FIFA's Arsene Wenger has unveiled new African football academies but Kenya is excluded spotlighting the need for enhanced football development efforts.
Having settled into the game, Homeboyz were unlucky not to go in front after 25 minutes when Moses Mudavadi won the ball in midfield before firing a shot into the hands of Levis Opiyo.
The pace of Ingwe’s front line was proving difficult to deal with for the Abana Abeingo defenders and Beja Hassan was enjoying one of his better performances since joining Leopards as he relished playing in a more advanced role.
With the half hour mark approaching, Beja was again in the thick of things, this time his effort cannoned off the woodwork after he made a late darting run into the box.

FKFPL Murang'a Seal stun Bidco ending 11-game winless run to ease pressure on coach Abdallah Juma
Murang'a Seal have achieved a vital win in the FKF Premier League against Bidco United, ending a nearly four-month winless streak.
Leopards were completely dominant in the first half and Moussa Oundo also came close to getting the opener but he could only watch on as his effort flew just wide of the target.
Kakamega Homeboyz came into the game late in the half but neither side was able to find a way through their opponents defense in the opening 45 minutes, leaving the match goalless at the interval.
The second half on the other hand was a lot more tentative with Leopards happy to sit back and soak up the pressure.

FKFPL Abdalla, Kahiro strike as Bandari fight back to sink Nzoia Sugar
Bandari FC achieved a comeback victory against Nzoia in a FKF Premier League match played at Sudi Stadium in Bungoma.
This saw Homeboyz forced to play the waiting game as they looked to weave their way through a rigid backline which consisted of former Wazito FC man Aziz Okaka.
Jaffari Owiti and Victor Omune looked disjointed in the middle of the park as they struggled to supply the likes of Hassan and Otieno.
Beja Hassan was also not in the game, and it did not come as a surprise when Tomas Trucha took him off in the second half.

Kakamega Homeboyz dominated proceedings, and at one stage, they had over 65 percent of ball possession, but even then, they still could not hurt Ingwe.
Leopards squandered another good goal scoring chance following a counter-attacking move after 75 minutes.
