Man-of-the-match Ugandan Ivan Anguyo headed in the <a id=\"_GPLITA_2\" title=\"Powered by Text-Enhance\" href=\"#\">winner<\/a>nine minutes to the end to break Sony\u2019s hopes\u00a0 and\u00a0 help Gor Mahia overtake Tusker in the log and keep leaders AFC Leopards on check.<\/p>\n<p>The first period clearly belonged to Gor Mahia who launched attack after attack but good defending from Sony managed to keep the score sheet clean. In the 5<sup>th<\/sup> minute a good cross from Rama Salim was blocked by Sony keeper Collins Oduor for Gor Mahia\u2019s first corner. From the short corner Moses Odhiambo\u2019s cross was met by Rama Salim whose free header did not trouble the keeper.<\/p>\n<p>Sony captain Sylvester Wanyama\u2019s\u00a0 error gifted Gor Mahia another corner that was easily cleared then Rama Salim\u2019s\u00a0 15<sup>th<\/sup> minute free kick went wide.<\/p>\n<p>Sony then had their first shot on target through Samuel Onyango but keeper Jerim Onyango\u00a0 held the ball comfortably.<\/p>\n<p>In the 20<sup>th<\/sup> minute Ali Abondo\u2019s pin point pass to Serunkuma went to waste as the latter\u2019s touch let him down. Five minutes later Serunkuma was fouled by Ogutu at the edge of the box, the resulting free kick was taken by Rama Salim. Sony keeper blocked it as well as a rebound shot from\u00a0 Serunkuma.<\/p>\n<p>With the action not going according to plan, Coach Logarusic opted to bring in Kevin Omondi for Joseph Njuguna in the 33<sup>rd<\/sup> minute.<\/p>\n<p>In minute 36, Sony\u2019s lethal man Enock Agwanda had a chance but his strong shot soared above the posts. Immediately on the other side, Donald Mosoti\u2019s\u00a0\u00a0 try from a long range shot failed miserably.<\/p>\n<p>The teams went for the break tied at nil nil.<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Omondi had the first second half chance but his execution was pathetic. Then Sony created theirs from a long throw by\u00a0 Enock Agwanda\u00a0 that resulted in a corner\u00a0 but the that too went to waste.<\/p>\n<p>In the 67<sup>th<\/sup> minute a Donald Mosoti\u2019s header from Moses Odhiambo\u2019s corner had\u00a0\u00a0 the expectant\u00a0 crowd up in their feet but went wide.<\/p>\n<p>It was Sony\u2019s turn in the 77<sup>th<\/sup> minute when\u00a0 Nyangech\u2019s\u00a0 cross was\u00a0 headed straight at keeper Onyango by Enock Agwanda.<\/p>\n<p>Sony Sugar survived another Gor <a id=\"_GPLITA_1\" title=\"Powered by Text-Enhance\" href=\"#\">assault<\/a> when the keeper pulled a lovely save\u00a0 to deny substitute\u00a0 Itumbu Imbem.<\/p>\n<p>In the 81<sup>st<\/sup> minute Gor Mahia won a corner that was executed by Moses Odhiambo. Ivan Anguyo rose to powerfully head in for the only goal of the match that brought the packed\u00a0 \u201cTok Komwanda\u201d into wild jubilation.<\/p>\n<p>The <a id=\"_GPLITA_3\" title=\"Powered by Text-Enhance\" href=\"#\">win<\/a> puts Gor Mahia only two points adrift of leaders AFC Leopards and sets up a sumptuous derby on 23<sup>rd<\/sup> September at Kasarani.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gor Mahia\u00a0 :<\/strong> Fred Onyango,Solomon Nasio (,Itubu Imbem 69\u2019) ,Chris Wekesa,Ivan Anguyo, Ali Abondo(Edwin Lavatsa\u00a0 59) Donald Mosoti,Athony Akumu,Joseph Njuguna(Kevin Omondi 33) ,Dan Serunkuma,Rama Salim,Moses Odhiambo<\/p>\n<p>Unused Subs: Ivo Mapunda,David Owino,Moses Otieno,Anthony Gathu<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sony Sugar:<\/strong>Collins Oduor,Wycliffe Nyangechi,Vincent Ogutu(Joseph Omweri )Alfred Onyango,Sylvester Wanyama,Dennis Okoth,Samuel Onyango,Francise Ocholla,Enock Agwanda,Marwa Chamberi (Victor Ochieng 56\u2019),Robert Ouma (John Kiplagat 70)<\/p>\n<p>Unused Subs: Wilson Obungu,Eugine Ochieng,Cain Okeyo,Isaiah Omondi<\/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-edge-sony\/\"\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>courtesy of michezoafrika.com Gor Mahia\u2019s march\u00a0 to the top of the Tusker Premier League took another positive stride on Sunday<\/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":[],"class_list":["post-911","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/911","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=911"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/911\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=911"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=911"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=911"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
