(6)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Collins Shivachi<\/strong>-He was caught flat-footed on numerous occasions, but he made a brilliant goal line clearance to stop Juma Balinya\u2019s shot. (5)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Washington Munene<\/strong>-Save for the defensive mix-up that lead to the goal, he had a great derby debut. (6)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Robert Mudenyu<\/strong>-Looked slow at the start and lacked positional awareness, but improved as the game progressed. (5)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Robinson Kamura:<\/strong>\u00a0As the captain, he led from the back and did his defensive duties well. (6)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Said Tsuma<\/strong>&#8211; He partnered well with Collins Shichenje in the midfield before he paved way for Hansel Ochieng in the 84th minute.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jaffary Owiti-<\/strong>\u00a0He lacked his usual sharpness and pace on the wing. He was replaced by Boniface Mukhekhe after restart. (4)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Collins Shichenje<\/strong>-He anchored the midfield very well and provided energy in the centre of the field. He made the opposition\u2019s midfield look ordinary. (8)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elvis Rupia<\/strong>-Flushes of promise but missed a couple of chances including a sitter after the hour mark. (6)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Austin Odhiambo<\/strong>-Driving force with his mazy runs from the midfield. He provided a number of assists that could have resulted into a goal. (7)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vincent Oburu<\/strong>-Not effective as expected. Poor decision making in most cases. He was replaced by Francis Manoah in the 74th minute.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Substitutes:\u00a0<\/strong>Boniface Mukhekhe (for Jaffary Owiti 46\u2019) 6, Francis Manoah (for Vincent Oburu 74\u2019) 5, Hansel Ochieng\u2019 (for Said Tsuma 84\u2019) 3<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.standardmedia.co.ke\/images\/monday\/dgjzudkdk6q6qj95e66a8646caa5.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><figcaption><em><strong>AFC Leopards fans react after they lost 1-0 to Gor Mahia during their KPL Derby at Kasarani Stadium on Sunday 08\/03\/2020<\/strong><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Gor Mahia<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Boniface Oluoch<\/strong>-His goalkeeping experience moreso in dealing with crosses proved invaluable for Gor Mahia. (7)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Geoffrey Ochieng<\/strong>-He looked uncomfortable in the unfamiliar right back role, but just got away with it. (6)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Michael Apudo<\/strong>-Not rampaging going forward, but he worked hard to contain AFC Leopards\u2019 attacks in the second half. (6)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Joash Onyango<\/strong>-He made a decent return to the side from suspension. He made a series of vital tackles to deny the opposition. (7)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Charles Momanyi<\/strong>-Looked comfortable at the back and won a number of aerial battles. (7)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jackson Owusu<\/strong>&#8211; The Ghanaian midfielder had an average performance. He didn\u2019t create much going forward. (5)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Clifton Miheso<\/strong>-He was involved in Gor\u2019s goal and forced a fine save from the keeper before being replaced by Samuel Onyango on the hour mark.
