What Happened?

Gor Mahia players led by coach Sinisa Mihic and captain Philemon Otieno visit defender Kennedy Onyango.

Onyango has been hospitalized since Monday after suffering a complete fracture of both his fibula and tibia during Gor Mahia's 1-0 win over KCB.

The injury occurred after a collision with his own goalkeeper, Gad Mathews, which forced Onyango to be stretchered off the pitch.

He had been brought into the starting lineup for the crucial encounter, but his outing ended prematurely due to the unfortunate incident.

Impact on Gor Mahia’s Title Chase

Gor Mahia are embroiled in three-way battle for the FKF Premier League title.

The timing of Onyango’s injury is a major blow for Gor Mahia, who are in the thick of a tightly contested title race.

The reigning champions currently sit third on the FKF Premier League table with 46 points, just three behind leaders Kenya Police (49 points) and two behind second-placed Tusker (48 points).

As the club eyes a record-extending 22nd league title, they will now have to navigate the remainder of the season without one of their key defenders.
