It was a mirror image of the first leg. Gor Mahia seem unable to adapt their game to that field.<br \/>\nAdditional reporting from goal.com<br \/>\nMathare United handed coach Dylan Kerr his first defeat after edging out Gor Mahia 1-0 in a Kenyan Premier League match at Thika Stadium on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Chrispine Oduor\u2019s goal in the fifth minute made all the difference as Mathare United completed a double over the KPL league leaders by an identical scoreline.<\/p>\n<p>Gor Mahia had started well with Meddie Kagere breaking free from the right and beating Samuel Olwande in defence but his resultant effort went wide.<\/p>\n<p>Two minutes later, Gor Mahia were forced to make an early substitution when Ian Wafula was brought in for Karim Nizigiyimana.<\/p>\n<p>Then the tide quickly turned as Mathare seem to take control and the result was their early goal.<br \/>\nOduor created space for himself on the left and picked out Cliff Nyakeya who returned the favour and the latter beat Boniface Oluoch with a low shot at the bottom right corner for Mathare\u2019s opener in the fifth minute.<\/p>\n<p>After the goal, Mathare continued to pile pressure. In the 21st minute, Edward Seda\u2019s free kick from the edge of the box went inches wide.<\/p>\n<p>Then two minutes later, Boniface Oluoch was forced to come out to deny Mathare United once again from a corner kick.<\/p>\n<p>Nyakeya\u2019s shot in the 33rd minute went just wide.<\/p>\n<p>One minute later, Gor Mahia midfielder Francis Kahata was denied by Lewis Opiyo in goal for Mathare from a well taken volley.<\/p>\n<p>The Slum Boys were the more ambitious side at the start of the second half with Chris Ochieng\u2019s shot blocked by Oluoch.<\/p>\n<p>At the hour mark, Edward Seda\u2019s free kick hit the Gor wall. Jacques Tuyisenge came close to equalising for Gor, but his header hit the roof with a quarter of an hour to go.<\/p>\n<p>Kahata was denied once again by Opiyo from a free kick as Gor continued to pile pressure.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/news\/gor-mahia-go-down-to-mathare-united-1-0\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coach Dylan Kerr suffered his first defeat as Kogalo coach when his side went down 0-1 to Mathare United at<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[480,224],"class_list":["post-10074","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-2017-kenya-premier-league","tag-gor-mahia-vs-mathare-united"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10074","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10074"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10074\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10079,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10074\/revisions\/10079"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10074"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10074"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10074"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
