Posta Rangers retain KPL status after beating Nairobi Stima in play-offs

Posta Rangers survived the axe to the National Super League (NSL) after playing out to a 1-1 draw against Nairobi Stima in the promotion/relegation play-offs on Wednesday.

After winning the first leg 2-1, the John Kamau led side needed a draw of any kind to ensure they remain in the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) for the 2019/20 season.

Francis Nambute gave the Mailmen a deserved lead after just five minutes, after finishing off a rebound. It was a wakeup call for the Powermen who knew they had to score at least two goals and concede none to stand a chance of promotion.
