Match Overview

Tusker dominated proceedings from the start, controlling the midfield through captain Humphrey Mieno. The opening goal came in the 23rd minute when striker Erick Kapaito latched onto a long ball and finished coolly past the Bidco goalkeeper. Kapaito, one of the league’s most prolific scorers, doubled his tally just before half-time, meeting a cross from the right wing with a powerful header.

Bidco United tried to mount a comeback in the second half, pushing forward with more intent, but Tusker’s defence, marshaled by centre-back Michael Kibwage, stood firm. Bidco’s best chance came in the 68th minute when a free kick was headed just wide, but otherwise Tusker goalkeeper Brian Bwire enjoyed a relatively quiet evening.
