An AFC Leopards team that “wasn’t pulling in the same direction” as per former head coach Tomas Trucha definitely did on a frenzy Sunday afternoon as Ingwe put behind their recent dip in form to secure a 1-0 victory over Kenya Police at Dandora Stadium.Billed as a contest that had two new faces on either touchlines leading their teams for the first time this season, it was Fred Ambani who engineered the perfect resuscitation of sorts’ AFC Leopards running away with a desired win that ended their five game winless run.It was also their first win since late September – a 2-1 win over Nairobi City Stars – that explained why the mammoth Leopards fanbase stayed behind to salute and celebrate their team as they walked off the pitch.IT’S FULL IN DANDORA Feeling jolly with 6 million othersAFC Leopards SC 1 Police FC 0⚽️ Owino Kennedy #𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐤𝐚 #𝐎𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 | #𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐖𝐄 pic.twitter.com/yG6hjwcA8Z— AFC Leopards SC (@AFCLeopards) December 1, 2024 The defining moment for the patient yet hungry cats came in the 75th minute when Ovella Ochieng’s freekick at the edge of the box hit the woodwork, before Kennedy Owino reacted quickest to tap in the rebound from close-range.
