Shabana stretched their unbeaten run to four matches after picking a stunning 2-0 win over leaders KCB in an entertaining FKF Premier League match played at Gusii Stadium on Sunday.

Brian Michira and rising star Austin Odongo netted for the hosts who moved to joint fourth on 20 points same as Kenya Police.

For KCB, the defeat was painful to swallow after failing to take advantage of arch rivals Gor Mahia's slip.

On the other hand, Ryan Ogam scored a brace as Tusker moved joint top with KCB on 24 points after defeating Bidco United 2-1 at Dandora Stadium.

Simon Munala netted Bidco's consolation in the 85th minute, a goal that could not help salvage a point for them.

At the same time, Sofapaka came from behind to force a 1-1 draw with AFC Leopards.

Kelly Madada gave Ingwe a narrow 1-0 half time lead but Batoto ba Mungu had other ideas after Edward Ondimo netted the equalizer in the 84th minute.

The draw leaves Ingwe sixth with 19 points while Sofapaka are ninth with 18 points same as Gor Mahia.
