Mathare United extended their lead in the National Super League table to five points with a narrow victory over Kajiado FC.

"What I can say is that we were denied two clear penalties, and it was disheartening to witness the fans' reaction towards the referees. It's important to remember that referees are human, and they can make mistakes, but there were some decisions that they could have made differently, such as the penalties that were not awarded to us," Kaka candidly stated.
The fans' anger escalated to such a point that the match officials had to be swiftly escorted to safety under tight security, with police officers intervening to rescue the referee from a hostile crowd.

"It is not the first time; when we went to Silibwet, my players were physically assaulted, and nothing has been done. Poor officiating will make some of us lose momentum if nothing is done," he added.
Despite the bitter loss, Kajiado FC is determined to persevere and climb the ranks.
"Nevertheless, we are not giving up. My players, despite their youth, have the potential to compete at a high level. Our ultimate goal is to secure a spot in the Premier League," he stated.
