DAY OF COMEBACKS AND MISSED OPPORTUNITY FOR LEOPARDS

 Saturday 20th gameweek in the Kenyan league saw results which to some were shocking. The matchday started off with a win for Posta Rangers two goals against Mathare United. The second goal was rather contentious as the ball did not seem to have passed the line despite the referee giving it.

Caf promised that impartial medical team would be provided but that remains a dream. It is high time this trend is stopped because Covid may be here longer than we think and we don't want it to stipulate African football.
