There were four other Kenyans on the field, Ruth Ingosi and Jentrix Shikangwa for @simbaqueensctz, Wincate Kaari and Foscah Kanenge for @Yanga PrincessSC. What a goal! pic.twitter.com/SF8w2a4qRE— Murimi Njiru (@muriminjirujnr) December 22, 2022 It was not an all-new experience for Shikangwa playing against Yanga as she even scored them in October in a pre-season friendly match dubbed Women’s Sports Festival as Simba won 2-0.
