Mashemeji Derby date confirmedHaving lost 2-1 to Shabana FC in the previous encounter, Bidco headed to Monday’s clash aware that anything short of the three points would dent the already fragile survival hopes. Bidco had their left-footed central defender, Kevin Musamali, to thank as his sole goal in the 77th minute sealed their sixth win of the season and proved to be what the team needed to collect more in the remaining two matches. Musamali had to wait for close to six minutes to convert the penalty, as KCB players and the technical protested against the referee’s decision to award the free hit. The heavy dissent did not go unnoticed and unpunished as it earned KCB centre back Haniff Wesonga his marching orders in the 75th minute.
