It was an eventful Sunday across the Sportpesa League on November 2, 2025, as Murang’a Seal produced a composed home performance to beat KCB 2–1, Kakamega Homeboyz fought back late to share points with Tusker, and Bidco United were held to a 0–0 draw by APS Bomet.
At the St. Sebastian Park in Murang’a, the hosts displayed confidence, control, and character to claim their first home win under their new coach. The match started with Murang’a imposing their rhythm early, and their persistence paid off just before halftime when Osama broke the deadlock in the 45th minute, firing home to make it 1–0. The goal sent the home crowd into celebration, with the team taking a deserved lead into the break.
The second half saw Murang’a maintain their intensity. Coach’s tactical substitutions — bringing on Francis Kahiro, Maruti Dennis, and Philemon Nyakwaka added fresh energy to the midfield. Despite a few anxious moments, Seal kept their composure, and in the 88th minute, King Joe sealed the points with a superb strike to make it 2–0, a goal that was met with thunderous cheers from the Seal faithful. KCB pulled one back late, but it was too little too late as Murang’a ran out 2–1 winners.
After the final whistle, the coach lauded his side’s effort, calling it a “first home win to remember,” and thanked fans for their unwavering support. The victory reflected a team finding its rhythm proud, passionate, and united under the “#WeAreTheSeals” banner.
Meanwhile, at Bukhungu Stadium, Kakamega Homeboyz battled back to earn a 1–1 draw against Tusker FC in an intense encounter. The visitors had gone ahead in the 65th minute through Dennis Oalo, who pounced after winning possession in midfield and finished low past the keeper. Tusker seemed in control for much of the second half, creating several chances through Kapaito and Fabian, but Homeboyz refused to give in.
The hosts pushed relentlessly in the final minutes, hitting the post and forcing goalkeeper Brian Opondo into fine saves. Their persistence was finally rewarded in the 87th minute when Oliver Majaka equalized to the delight of the home supporters. The late goal ensured the points were shared after an end-to-end contest full of energy and determination from both sides.
Elsewhere, in Thika, Bidco United were held to a 0–0 draw by APS Bomet. Both teams had moments of control but lacked the cutting edge to convert chances. The result leaves both sides steady in mid-table but still searching for attacking sharpness.
The weekend’s results showcased the unpredictable nature of the Sportpesa League with late goals, home joy, and tight finishes defining a dramatic round of fixtures.
