NSL: Fortune maintain firm grip at the top after downing Mwatate

National Super League toppers Fortune Sacco have extended their lead at the top of the table after narrowly edging relegation threatened Mwatate United 1-0 at Wundanyi Stadium on Saturday evening.Consequently, the Kirinyaga based club was joined by fellow promotion hopefuls APS Bomet in reaching half a century points after 26 rounds in the season. Fortune who have now won 14 matches got maximum points courtesy of Jesse Ngei whose strike separated the two teams after the final whistle.Bomet who are trailing Fortune on goal difference grounds also reached the 50-point mark after humbling Gusii at Awendo Stadium. Dominic Kiptoo ensured the long trip to Awendo was not in vain as his goal handed his side the three points as well as ensured that they remained hot on the heels of Fortune. While Bomet and Fortune had to sweat for their three points, Muhoroni Youth may end up picking three easy points from round 26 after their match day opponents Dandora Love failed to show up. The game was scheduled to be held at Muhoroni grounds but Love who are reportedly struggling to make ends meet didn’t hit the road for the away game and thus, the hosts are certainly set to get three points and two goals. Kibera Black Stars enhanced their chances of automatic promotion after beating the sorry Coastal Heroes 2-0 at Mbaraki Stadium. Former Ulinzi Stars forward Cliff Kasuti who boasts of massive top flight experience gave the slum boys the lead in the ninth minute and four minutes later, Samuel Kapen sealed the win after finding the back of the net from the spot.
