National Super League side Mwatate United have finally ended their wait for a first win of the season after narrowly edging debutants Naivas 2-1 at the Wundanyi Stadium on Wednesday.Mwatate had gone for ten rounds without a win, as they had lost seven and shared spoils, a run that was largely blamed on the exit of a number of players who sought greener pastures last year.Mwatate got the much needed goals through John Musyoka and Elli Otieno while Naivas who finished with ten men after Kingsley Kella was sent off got their consolation goal through Brian Oyondi.FT: KBS – Shabana : 3 – 2Even after leading 3 – 0, a match is never easy against good opponents. With 3 points and 3 goals, it is far better today.
