The Brewers beat Vihiga Bullets 4-0 but it was not enough to help them secure the title, as Gor Mahia brushed aside Nairobi City Stars 4-1 to win a historic 20th league title.
Tusker FC stood a chance of winning the title for the second season in a row but knew that the crown was out of their hands as they started the day a point behind Gor Mahia who brushed aside Nairobi City Stars at the Kasarani Stadium 4-1 at the same time.
A brace by Stewart Omondi and goals from Deogracious Ojok and Shami Kibwana were enough to give Tusker all three points, which saw them finish the league second on 69 points, as K’Ogalo finished on 70 points after a season that saw both teams go head to head for a majority of the season.
