Bidco United finished third in the 2021 Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Cup after narrowly edging out Divison One side Equity FC 1-0 in the third-place play-off played behind closed doors at Nyayo National Stadium in Nairobi on Sunday.

Kassim Mwinyi scored the solitary goal of the match in the first half to end the bankers impressive run which included knocking out defending champions Bandari FC in the quarter-final stage.

The win was enough to hand coach Anthony Akhulia's side Sh750,000 cash prize money to cap an impressive domestic cup performance.

Akhulia said he was happy with his team’s performance in the campaign.

“It has been a good campaign for us considering the number of good teams we had to face in the competition. I am happy we won this match despite our mixed results in the league,” he said.
