Gor K’Ogalo edged out the sugar millers to keep their unbeaten record and cement top spot in Kenyan Premier League at Moi Kisumu on Sunday<\/p>\n
Gor Mahia edged out Muhoroni Youth 1-0 to keep their unbeaten run in Kenyan Premier League match at Moi Stadium\u00a0on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Michael Olunga should have scored earlier at the first whistle of the game when he failed to find the far post. Muhoroni Youth defender Wellington Ochieng was beaten to the ball by Khalid Aucho, who found Olunga waiting and his attempt towards the far post went just wide.<\/p>\n
In the ninth minute however, Olunga did not make a mistake scoring Gor Mahia’s opening goal.\u00a0Muhoroni Youth defenders will blame themselves for conceding the goal. Instead, of clearing the ball, they raised their hands protesting an Ali Abondo handball and paid for it when Olunga latched onto the ball to score.<\/p>\n
Two minutes later, Abondo should have connected a cross from the edge of the box but was denied by Muhoroni Youth goalkeeper Daniel Kiptoo who did well to block the shot.<\/p>\n
Gor Mahia were so dominant that their opponents had not even made a single shot at goal by the 20th minute. This was however, to change in the 21st minute when Abbas Akinyemi had an opportunity to shoot at goal but it was fruitless.<\/p>\n
The home side preferred to stay at the back hoping to catch Gor Mahia on counter-attack but it did not work. Gor Mahia showed a lot of discipline in midfield rarely losing the ball and with a back four playing well, their opponents rarely found room to give them problems.<\/p>\n
By the 25th minute, Gor Mahia had forced their second corner of the match when Yussuf Mohammed headed out Olunga goal bound shot. Muhoroni made an early substitution pulling out Hamisi Abdallah for Paul Mboya. The new man was cautioned with just a few minutes into the match. But it was Gor Mahia midfielder Godfrey Walusimbi, who was lucky not to have been sent off with dangerous play on Wellingtone Ochieng.<\/p>\n
The second half was equally action packed but it produced no goals. The best chance for Gor Mahia came in the 75th minute when Ali Abondo hit the post with the ball bouncing back into play. Meddie Kagere was rested towards the end with his place going to Innocent Wafula.<\/p>\n
