Benson Omalla struck twice as champions Gor Mahia beat eternal rivals AFC Leopards 2-0 in the 97th Mashemeji derby at Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani on Saturday.
Omalla scored the opener on 22 minutes after capitalising on a goalkeeping error from Levis Opiyo, before adding a second in the 56th minute to send the Green Army, that included club patron and Azimio One Kenya leader Raila Odinga, who was also in the stands, into a frenzy.
In the other Football Kenya Federation Premier League matches played on Saturday, Murang’a Seal piled more misery on bottom-placed Sofapaka after beating them 2-0 at St Sebastian Park in Murang’a while Zdravko Logarusic made it two wins in as many matches as Kenya Police beat Nairobi City Stars 1-0 at the Police Sacco Stadium.
Ulinzi Stars overpowered Kariobangi Sharks 1-0 at Ulinzi Sports Complex for their second win of the season.
