However, the lead didn’t last long as the Harambee Stars international tapped into an empty net just four minutes later after a goalkeeping error.

The game then turned into an equal contest, with Bandari first controlling proceedings before Seal got back into their stride in the last quarter of the half. The second half saw Seal coming out strong, controlling proceedings and managing to take the lead with a goal from captain Peter Mwaura. However, the lead was short-lived as Francis Kahiro scored to level the game again.

The match ended with Mwaphalu scoring the winning goal against the run of play. Overall, it was a thrilling game that saw Bandari FC secure a hard-fought victory and extend Seal’s winless run to ten games.
