Kariobangi Sharks overcome KCB hurdle to book third Shield Cup final

Kariobangi Sharks have reached the FKF Shield final for the third time in a row after overcoming KCB by a solitary goal in a hotly contested semi-final played at Kenyatta Stadium in Machakos on Sunday.

The first half was a cagey affair with both teams taking a cautious approach. Most of the action took place in the middle of the park.

Erick Kapaito, Kevinton Machika and Duke Abuya lead Shark's hunt for goals while Benson Amianda, Kennedy Owino and Chris Onyango were in charge of the Bankers' hunt for goals.

Gad Mathews pulled a huge save from point black to deny Onyango in the 20th minute while Joseph Okoth did well to prevent a Mike Kibwage own goal in the 28th minute.
