As early as the 7th minute, Ali Abondo had an excellent chance but his shot went directly to the Nakuru All Stars\u00a0 goalkeeper Shady Indimuli for an easy save. Indimuli was at it again, stifling three minutes later, foiling Olunga who found himself with a wide open path to goal but his powerful shot was saved by Indimuli.<\/p>\n<p>Veteran Hillary Echesa came closest for All stars when his well taken free-kick forced boniface Oluoch into a good save in the 12th minute.<\/p>\n<p>Gor Mahia continued to press for a goal with Kagere coming close only to be denied by Indimuli before Collins Okoth hit the post with a diving header. But the stars defence held on , frustrating Gor Mahia and riding their luck. Kagere finally broke the deadlock on the stroke of halftime to put Gor Mahia one goal ahead at halftime.<\/p>\n<p>As the second half started, Gor Mahia maintained their tempo with Abondo coming close, only to be stifled by Indimuli again.<\/p>\n<p>The dam which had held the gushing water for 45 minutes finally broke. Michael Olunga scored the second goal in the 70th minute following good spadework from Abouba Sibomana. Ali Abondo scored the 3rd goal from the penalty spot only two minutes later after Olunga was fouled in the penalty box. . Meddie Kagere scored again in the 78th minute with a superb goal in which he rounded the keeper. Haron Shakava found himself among the goal-scorers for the first time this season when he scored in the 87th minute to seal the score from a corner kick taken by Ali Abondo.<\/p>\n<p>This match will perhaps be remembered for the two goals Kagere scored which were classic. He put on a clinic in how to finish. In a post match interview, he was asked how he managed to score the first goal. He responded: &#8220;I saw the goalkeeper was already coming to where I was going to pass so i had to squeeze myself between the two defenders in order to reach the ball first&#8221;. Supersport analyst Dan Shikanda described Kagere&#8217;s\u00a0 second goal as the best goal he has ever seen.<\/p>\n<p>The last time Gor Mahia won a match by such an emphatic scoreline was against Anse Re-Union whom Gor Mahia beat 5-0 in continental encounter in 2013. As for the local scene, one would have to go back several years to find the last time Gor Mahia won by such a scoreline.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/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-run-riot-against-all-stars\/\"\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>Gor Mahia ripped\u00a0 Nakuru All Stars to shreds at Nyayo stadium beating them 5-0 in what is the highest score<\/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":[142,349,297],"class_list":["post-6759","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-gor-mahia-vs-nakuru-all-stars","tag-kenya-premier-league-2015","tag-meddie-kagere"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6759","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=6759"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6759\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6771,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6759\/revisions\/6771"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6759"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6759"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6759"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
