Former champions Gor Mahia on Saturday stretched their unbeaten run in the 2021-2022 Football Kenya Federation Premier League to four games after a narrow 1-0 win over Sofapaka at the Moi Sports Complex, Kasarani.
Burundian import Jules Ulimwengu hit the target early on in the game to hand the record Kenyan champions their fourth win of the campaign.
Gor has so far defeated heavy teams in KCB, Kariobangi Sharks, AFC Leopards and now Sofapaka.
The win also propelled Gor to the summit of the 18-team league with 12 points temporarily with closest rivals Kakamega Homeboyz playing tomorrow.
The defeat was Sofapaka’s third of the new campaign and leaves them 11th with four points after five matches.
