FKFPL Oscar Paul the hero as Kakamega Homeboyz dramatically disarm Ulinzi Stars
Oscar Paul's goal in the dying minutes of the match was enough to give Kakamega Homeboyz all the three points at Ulinzi Stars' expense.
Speaking after the match, the former Gor Mahia assistant coach revealed that he was pleased that his side managed to get the victory after he had accepted a draw would be a fair result at some point during the match.
“We wanted to come for all the three points,” Odhiambo said.
“However, based on how the first half went on, we thought that a draw would still be okay since we were playing away from home.

FOOTBALL Gor Mahia and Posta Rangers jostling up top but a lot to worry about for AFC Leopards and Shabana
Posta Rangers and Gor Mahia may have returned to winning ways but they will need to be mindful of the chasing pack while AFC Leopards and Shabana continue to grope in the dark
“From experience, there are times were we chase the victory and then get flat-footed in the last seconds, so it was in my mind. The important thing was not to lose.
“I thank my players for their effort, and those who came on did very well.
“In football nowadays, there is an emphasis on physicality. The game today is all about stepping up to the plate. We therefore have to adapt (accordingly).”
