Ingwe’s unbeaten status in 2024 continued Sunday as Tomas Trucha’s side settled for a barren draw with rivals Kakamega Homeboyz in Sunday’s highlight fixture at Bukhungu Stadium, Kakamega.It all ends square at home #AbanaBeingo pic.twitter.com/KgvAgdgyMs— Kakamega Homeboyz FC (@FcHomeboyz) February 18, 2024 A tweet by the away side’s social media team by the words: “It’s all heated here at Bukhungu. The sun. The fans. The action on the field. No goals yet” though composed after 22 minutes of the contest that attracted a pretty sizeable clash, painted the scenes at full time; no side good enough to breach the opponent’s goal.Leopards, who had keeper Levis Opiyo and defender Randy Bakari return to the side, were first under pressure – debutant Oliver Majak seeing his tee up shot from close combination with Moses Mudavadi go wide – but slowly got back into the game with Kayci Odhiambo connecting with the woodwork from a Vincent Mahiga freekick.##NAJAVA_MECA_7881218##Boniface Munyendo went close after the half and that was closely followed by Victor Omune’s blocked shot either side of two subtitutions to bring on Cliff Nyakeya and Luke Namanda.Not even the introduction of Brian Yakhama was going to change the outcome of this game – that AFC Leopards dominated in the first leg – as they dropped points for the first time this year, Homeboyz maintaining their two point advantage over bitter foes.At Police Sacco Stadium, John Mark Makwata’s strike in the second half ensured Kariobangi Sharks were going back home with a point after battling back from a goal down to draw 1-1.Alex Juma had given Talanta the lead after 42 minutes but saw the new signing come off the bench to draw level, seeing William Muluya’s side avoid defeat and remain two points above the drop-zone.⏹️ 𝐅𝐔𝐋𝐋 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄Spoils shared#WeAreSharks pic.twitter.com/rxTA0c4rKB— Kariobangi Sharks FC (@k_sharksfc) February 18, 2024 Talanta jumped up to 13th, above Sofapaka, who were held to a 2-2 draw by visiting Muhoroni Youth.
