FKFPL Gor Mahia school 10-man Shabana to put pressure on surprise leaders Posta
Gor Mahia fully took advantage of Shabana being reduced to 10 men to grab all the three points in an enticing encounter.
Midway through the second half Okanda went on an extraordinary solo run which started inside his own half and ended with him cutting onto his left foot inside the penalty area, but his shot was way high and wide.
Rangers then enjoyed a spell of pressure at the other end, though they lacked the necessary precision in attack to truly cut open Homeboyz's defense, with Shikhalo not called into action nearly as much as in the opening quarter of the game.
