What you need to know:

  • Coach Charles Akonnor, whom a section of Gor fans have been calling for his departure, was clearly a relieved man.
  • Nairobi United beat Tusker 1-0 at SportPesa Arena in Murang’a as Mathare United downed Sofapaka by the same score.

Gor Mahia regained top spot of the 18-team SportPesa League after 11 days as pressure on their Ghanaian coach Charles Akonnor eased with a solitary goal win over tough Kakamega Homeboyz at Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani, on Wednesday.

The win took Gor Mahia’s points tally to 23, two more than second-placed KCB, who had taken leadership of the table on Tuesday following their 4-2 thumping of APS Bomet at Kasarani.
