KSSSA: Koderobara defeat Matutu to emerge Nyanza Region football champions

Koderobara Secondary School are the new 2024 Nyanza Region Secondary School football boys’ champions.

Koderobara, representing Migori County, emerged victorious after dismissing Matutu PAG from Nyamira 2-1, in a finals match played at the Moi Stadium in Kisumu today.

The match was postponed from Saturday last week after the crowd caused chaos during a semi-final match between Agoro Sare and Matutu at Cardinal Otunga, Mosocho, which was later abandoned as the latter led 2-0.

Koderobara had the say from the beginning of the match, with Gerald Samson scoring a brace in the first half, before Matutu captain Tony Oloo scored a consolation goal from a penalty kick.

The Migori County champions will now represent Nyanza Region in the finals set to start on the 29th of this month.

Speaking after the match, Koderobara coach Moses Otieno sounded a warning to their opponents at the national games.

“We are going to prepare adequately, and we want to send a message to our opponents that they should come prepared for us. We are going to do what it takes so that we make a mark at the national level,” warned Otieno.

Koderobara will now represent Nyanza Region in the finals set to begin on July 29, 2024, in a venue yet to be decided.

This as the case lodged by Agoro Sare on their botched semi-final match against Matutu is still pending.

Agoro accused Matutu of fielding ineligible players, with the outcome still pending at the office of the Nyanza Regional Director of Education.

The match was abandoned in the 75th minute as Matutu were leading 2-0, due to trouble by fans.
