FKF-PL: Tusker sink Bandari to go top as Police shoot down Rangers

Tusker FC went top of the FKF-Premier League log thanks to a hard-fought 1-0 win over Bandari United on Wednesday afternoon at Kenyatta Stadium in Machakos.

Thomas Omole’s 19th-minute strike was enough to earn the brewers all points on offer, a feat that provided respite for their disappointing 2-1 loss against in-form Shabana last Sunday at the Gusii Stadium.

Charles Okere’s charges have garnered 30 points from 16 outings this term, three ahead of second-placed KCB, who have a game in hand.

In the lunchtime kick-off time, third-placed Kenya Police left it late to floor Posta Rangers 3-2 in a pulsating encounter played at the same venue.

Rangers drew first blood within three minutes after kick-off before Brian Musa equalized in the sixth minute to force a 1-1 scoreline at the break.

Alfred Leku put Police ahead in the 67th minute before Olivier Maloba, scoring in his second game on the bounce, restored parity in the 71st minute.

After fierce exchanges in the closing stages, it was the Police who had the last laugh after Marvin Nabwire slotted home the winner in the 92nd minute.
