Tusker FC recorded a slim win against AFC Leopards to end Ingwe’s unbeaten run in 2024 while moving to second place, seven points behind leaders Gor Mahia.

However, Kenya Police FC fought back, with Cliton Kinanga heading in the equalizer in the second half, setting the stage for an intense finish.
Despite numerous chances for Police FC to clinch the victory, including a close call by Alvin Mang’eni whose shot hit the crossbar in the closing stages, Muhoroni's defense, spearheaded by Bulugu, stood firm.
Bulugu's pivotal role in both defense and attack, intercepting several key opportunities, was instrumental in securing the draw for Muhoroni.
