Jacque Tuyisenge scored twice in the 33rd and 60th minutes. Humphrey Mieno scored in the 48th minute. Nzoia grabbed a consolation goal in the last minute of the match.<\/p>\n<p>Additional reporting from the Standard<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post\">\n<p>It took Jacques Tuyisenge half an hour to score his sixth goal of the season as he scored the opener against visiting Nzoia. The Rwandan had earlier wasted an open chance when Ernest Wendo set him free in the area. Tuyisenge failed to beat Mangala on a one-one situation with the Nzoia keeper grabbing the ball before the forward unleashed a close-range shot.<\/p>\n<p>Nzoia had their chances also in the first half with the first notable chance falling on Nzano&#8217;s path but the midfielder failed to control the ball after receiving a fine cross from Luke Namanda. The Millers continuous attacks saw them register a back to back free kicks in the 8th and\u00a0 10th minute. Elvis Rupia was fouled in the first instance by Harun Shakava before Bryan\u00a0Otieno was brought down by Wendo. Both free kicks were not successfully converted by the Millers.<\/p>\n<p>George Odhiambo was also culpable of squandering another wonderful chance for Gor Mahia after he shot wide as he tried to lobe the ball over Mangala. It is Boniface Omondi brought in the pass that Blackberry failed to score from.<\/p>\n<p>Mieno scored his second goal for the defending champions in the 47th minute when he headed in a corner delivered\u00a0equally powerful corner by Blackberry. Mieno scored his debut goal in the 2-2 draw against Chemelil Sugar at Kericho Green Stadium on April 25th.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kagere helpful hand<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Meddie Kagere played a wonderful ball to his compatriot Tuyisenge, who did not waste time and chance to bag his brace as he headed the ball with complete composure. The forward has now scored seven goals equal to Ulinzi Stars&#8217; Masita Masuta and Cliff Nyakeya for Mathare United.<\/p>\n<p>Otieno headed in from a free kick to hand Nzoia the only consoling goal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gor Mahia Starting XI:<\/strong> Boniface Oluoch, Philemon Otieno, Harun Shakava ( Joachim Oluoch), Joash Onyango, Godfrey Walusimbi, Humphrey Mieno, Ernest Wendo, Jacques Tuyisenge, Meddie Kagere, George Odhiambo (Ephrem Guikan), Boniface Omondi ( Lawrence Juma).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unused subs<\/strong>:\u00a0Shaban Odhoji, Innocent Wafula, Francis Kahata, Bernard Ondiek.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nzoia Sugar Starting XI;<\/strong> 39.
