Dennis Oliech scored a brace as Gor Mahia beat Zoo Kericho 4-0 to maintain the second spot on the log on 35 points.
K’Ogalo is just a point behind Sofapaka who had beaten Mount Kenya United 3-1 in the other midweek clash on Wednesday.
Oliech scored in either half in between Kenneth Muguna’s opener and, Nicholas Kipkirui's third goal. Oliech, however, missed a chance to grab his first hat trick for the Kenyan champions when he blasted his effort from the penalty spot over the bar.
