Victor Wanyama leads CF Montreal to narrow victory over Atlanta United
Despite the win CF Montreal head coach Laurent Courtois expressed disappointment over missed opportunities and lapses in collective management.
Odhiambo, versatile enough to play as a winger, had been eager to start his journey with the record FKF Premier League champions since his contract with Tusker ended.
"Gutted not to pick up full points but excited to make my debut with K'Ogalo and marking it with a goal. Thank you all for the support. We turn our focus towards our next fixture," Odhiambo wrote on social media after the match.
Odhiambo made his presence felt in the game in the 39th minute when capitalized on a well-placed inswinging corner from Chris Akena.
However, a defensive lapse in K'Ogalo defense allowed Djibouti Telecom to equalize just two minutes later through Warsama Houssein.

Although he found the back of the net on his first start for the club, Levin Odhiambo's late first half goal was not enough as Gor Mahia were held to a frustrating draw by Djibouti Telecom.
The draw leaves Gor Mahia in a precarious position in Group B, needing a near miracle to advance past the group stage after losing their opener to Red Arrows from Zambia.
The Kamukunji High School alumnus's debut had been delayed by registration issues stemming from his free transfer and the timing of his signing after the mid-season transfer deadline.
