KPL roundup: Mathare United fall as Western Stima draw K.Sharks

Mathare United took their bad performance to five matches when they suffered a 2-1 defeat against newbies Nakumatt on Sunday.

Fresh from last week’s Tusker defeat, the Francis Kimanzi coached outfit were hopeful of getting maximum  points against the Shoppers but Nicholas Meja and Kepha Aswani goals in the second-half drove them deep into relegation zone.

Crispin Oduor scored in the 74th minute but the goal simply served as a consolation to the 'Slum Boys'.

In Nairobi, Dennis Mukaisi and Jacques Tuyisenge scored one goal apiece to hand Posta Rangers and Gor Mahia one point each.
