What you need to know:
- After the game, the President saw off Odinga, the Gor Mahia patron, before making way inside the pitch where he briefly addressed both teams and then handed the captains Philemon Otieno (Gor Mahia) and Eugene Mukangula (AFC Leopards) Sh1 million each.
It was double celebration for AFC Leopards players after winning Sunday's Mashemeji Derby when President William Ruto donated Sh1 million to the club.
Ruto also gave a similar amount to Gor Mahia who lost the game 2-1 sat Nyayo National Stadium. This was the first time the Big Cats were beating K'Ogalo in seven years.
