Mathare United Wednesday continued with their revival after upsetting leaders Gor Mahia 2-1 in their Football Kenya Federation Premier League match at Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani.

Daniel Otieno scored the winning goal in the 82nd minute to hand Mathare all three points.

Douglas Kibet had fired Mathare ahead in the eighth minute, before Gor levelled through red-hot striker Benson Omala’s header in the 64th minute – his 17th goal of the season.

In other matches of the day, FC Talanta piled more misery on bottom-placed Vihiga Bullets after their 2-1 win at Kasarani Annex. Kariobangi Sharks got a  3-1 against hosts Wazito at Muhoroni Stadium.

Otieno, a former Gor Mahia midfielder, came off the bench to strike eight minutes from time as Sammy Koko’s men notched their fifth win of the season.

His goal came after Benson Omala’s 62th minute header had cancelled Douglas Kibet’s opener for the 2008 champions in the seventh minute.

This was Omala’s 17th goal of the season while Otieno has five goals to his name.

This was Gor’s second loss of the season after KCB outgunned K’Ogalo 1-0 earlier on January 4 at Nyayo Stadium.

Gor Mahia coach Johnathan McKinstry conceded that their opponents deserved to win.

“We were a bit flat. Mathare defended crosses well and today I don’t think our quality was good. We just have to pick ourselves up from this disappointing defeat,” said McKinstry.

Koko was over the moon after the crucial win against a team they had not beaten in the last five years.
