The never-die spirit in the Kenya Police team came into play Sunday as the law enforcers came from a goal down to beat Kakamega Homeboyz 2-1 at the Mumias Sports Complex, maintaining their unbeaten run under coach Salim Babu.Police were destined for their first loss in Babu’s reign, after falling behind in the first half, but the team recovered, and put in a gallant fight in the final stanza to pick maximum points from the rather difficult hunting ground.The hard-fought win, not only maintained their unbeaten run under the soft-spoken tactician, but also kept their slim league title hopes alive, as the three points cemented their stay on the second slot on the log.Babu took over the reins in December last year, succeeding his sacked boss Zdravko Logarusic.##NAJAVA_MECA_8079503##Seasoned winger Kevin Amwayi gave Homeboyz the lead moments to the halftime breather giving his side an edge to win the game in the end.However, fortunes swung in favour of Police in the second half as the visitors put in a spirited fight and managed to level matters.BREAKING: FKF calls off two FKF Premier League gamesSouth Sudanese forward Tito Okello drew Police level in the 60th minute, taking his tally in the season to 13, one behind Gor Mahia goal poacher Benson Omala.Police had to empty everything from their tank for three points, digging deep into stoppage time for the match-winner that came courtesy of Marvin Nabwire.With six matches remaining, Police can only win their matches and hope that Gor will slip up at some point so as to bag their first-ever major title.Mathare United CEO Jecton Obure reveals the club’s source of fundingK’Ogalo needs three wins to confirm their 21st league title.Should Police miss the league title, they will still have a chance of claiming their first silverware as the team is in the semifinals of the Mozzart Bet cup.They will play the 2017 winners AFC Leopards in the semis while the 2018 champions Kariobangi Sharks will take on KCB.
