This is after the Kenyan side was held to a 1-1 draw at home on Sunday at the Nyayo National Stadium in the return leg after going down 1-0 in the first leg away in Congo.
Gor, who were searching for a 2-0 win to assure themselves a qualification back to the group stages for the first time since 2019, found themselves trailing after 10 minutes of play when Otoho forward Roland Okouri broke the deadlock to complicate matters further for the hosts.
However, K’Ogalo leveled the scores two minutes later thanks to John Macharia but that was not enough since the visitors made good use of the wasting time tactics to hold Gor and win on aggregate score, progressing to the group stages for the second time.
Gor had received a boost for the second leg with head coach Mark Harrison having four of his influential players forward Jules Ulimwengu, midfielder John Ochieng, winger Sydney Ochieng and right-back Philemon Otieno who all missed the first leg.
