Western Stima came from a goal down to edge out Kangemi All-Stars 2-1 in the second of a LIVE FKF National Super League doubleheader played on Friday, July 13, 2018, at the Hope Center.

Ronald Kirumira capitalized on a goalkeeping mishap by Stima goalkeeper Samuel Odhiambo to put Kangemi on the front foot, a lead the hosts held onto in the first half.  Odhiambo would, however, atone for the error when he tucked in a second-half penalty to draw Stima level after Gregory Nyapala was adjudged to have handled the ball in the box. As the match seemed to be heading for a share of the spoils, John Mwita rose high to head in the winner in the 87th minute.

Earlier on at the same venue, Nairobi City Stars edged out Modern Coast Rangers 1-0. Peter Mwangi was on target for City Stars in the 6th minute to see them temporarily rise to sixth pending Saturday’s results.
