Mathare United cage Zoo FC as Ulinzi Stars drop points vs Nzoia Sugar

Mathare United defeated Zoo FC 3-1 in an entertaining Kenyan Premier League (KPL) match staged at Kasarani Stadium.

The 2008 champions set the ball rolling as soon as the sixth minute. Poor defending by the Kerich-based side ended with the ball at Kevin Kimani's feet and the veteran midfielder's low shot found the back of the net.

Andrew Juma fouled Dennis Ongeri in the 25th minute, leaving the referee with no choice but point to the penalty spot. Collins Neto stepped up sending Job Ochieng the wrong way to level matters.

In the 52nd minute, Tyson Otieno danced his way past two Zoo defenders before setting up the unmarked James Kinyanjui, who headed the ball past Lumumba Brian in goal.
