Harambee Stars striker Michael Olunga scored again in the J1 League but his Kashiwa Reysol went down 3-2 against bottom-placed Shonan Bellmare on Sunday.
Olunga’s form has seen him open a wide gap between him and the Golden Boot rivals as he continues to register goals more regularly in his maiden season in the top-tier.
Takuya Okamoto scored the opener for Shonan Bellmare in the fourth minute with an assist from Akimi Barada. The Harambee Star added to his tally when he scored in the 22nd minute to equalise for the visitors with Cristiano da Silva turning out to be the assist maker.
