AFC Leopards name Washington Munene’s successor as club captain
Ingwe have named new captains ahead of season opener as they look for fresh leadership on the pitch.
The midfielder received the ball from Musa Oundo, looked up and spotted the Mathare goalkeeper off his line, before lobbing it past him.
Mathare then had an opportunity to pull one back via a freekick but Leopards’ goalkeeper Levis Opiyo was equal to the task before he came to his side’s rescue again from the resultant corner.
Ingwe should have gone to the break leading 3-0 when Lewis Bandi made a good run on the right wing before delivering a great ball to Vincent Mahiga, but the latter’s header was cleared.
