Moses Shumah netted a brace as Kakamega Homeboyz thrashed Nairobi City Stars 5-0 at Dandora Stadium on Friday evening. The forward became the second player to reach double digits in the league, with top scorer Ryan Ogam, who leads with 15 goals, the only other player ahead of him.
Homeboyz began the match on the front foot, and it didn’t take long for them to break the deadlock. Glen Otunga capitalized on a defensive error, unleashing a powerful shot from the edge of the box to give his team the lead.
Just four minutes later, captain Moses Mudavadi tapped in a low cross from Hillary Otieno to double the advantage. The match went from bad to worse for Salim Babu’s City Stars as Moses Shumah scored the third goal just before the 15th-minute mark.
In the second half, Shumah completed his brace in the 49th minute, before Henry Omolo added a fifth goal in the 88th minute to seal the comprehensive victory. Notably, Homeboyz goalkeeper Simon Masaka has now recorded five consecutive clean sheets in the league since replacing James Ssetuba, who left during the mid-season transfer window.
Later at the same venue, Posta Rangers twice came from behind to secure a 2-2 draw against Kariobangi Sharks. Ally Salum opened the scoring for Sharks in the 10th minute, before Felix Oluoch equalized in the 28th minute. Sharks regained the lead in the 69th minute through an own goal, but Rangers responded quickly, leveling the score just three minutes later.
