Kenya Police Bullets Beat Vihiga Queens 5-0 as Police FC Stage Comeback Against Kakamega Hmeboyz

Kenya Police football teams enjoyed an impressive outing in western Kenya after delivering contrasting but equally remarkable performances in their respective Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Premier League assignments on Sunday.

While Kenya Police Bullets FC registered a convincing 5-0 victory over former league champions Vihiga Queens FC at Mumias Sports Complex, the men’s side, Kenya Police FC, produced a spirited second-half comeback to secure a 2-2 draw against Kakamega Homeboyz at Bukhungu Stadium.

The two results highlighted the competitive determination of the National Police Service-sponsored teams, with the women’s side demonstrating attacking efficiency while their male counterparts showed resilience to recover from a two-goal deficit.

At Mumias Sports Complex, Kenya Police Bullets delivered an outstanding performance, overpowering Vihiga Queens in a match that underlined their attacking strength and growing confidence in the women’s league.

The visitors took the lead shortly before the interval when Cynthia Lwala’s well-worked short-corner routine created an opportunity for Faith Mboya, who made no mistake in the 42nd minute to put the Bullets ahead.

The goal gave Kenya Police Bullets the advantage going into the break, but the team returned for the second half with even greater attacking intent.

Their pressure immediately paid off in the 48th minute when Mboya turned provider, delivering a well-timed pass that was met by Airin Madalina, who headed home to double the advantage.

Madalina was back on the scoresheet just two minutes later, completing a well-coordinated passing move to register her second goal of the afternoon and put the Bullets firmly in control.

Her impressive contribution earned her the Queen of the Match award following an influential display in the attacking department.

Rebecca Okwaro then added another dimension to the team’s dominance in the 64th minute. The forward embarked on an impressive solo run from midfield, cutting through the Vihiga Queens defence before finishing confidently to make it 4-0.

Okwaro completed her brace in the 90th minute, calmly converting from close range after Puren Anyutwe delivered a well-placed cross into the danger area.

The late goal completed a comprehensive 5-0 victory for Kenya Police Bullets, leaving the former champions with little opportunity to respond to the visitors’ sustained attacking pressure.

Meanwhile, Kenya Police FC provided another memorable moment for the Service at Bukhungu Stadium, where they fought back from two goals down to earn a valuable point against Kakamega Homeboyz.

Playing before their home supporters, Kakamega Homeboyz made an early statement when Thomas Omolle rose to head home in the fifth minute, handing the hosts a 1-0 advantage.

Kenya Police FC attempted to restore parity but struggled to find a breakthrough before the half-time whistle, with Homeboyz maintaining their narrow lead.

The hosts strengthened their position in the 61st minute when Dennis Iguma converted from a corner-kick situation to extend the advantage to 2-0, leaving the visitors with a difficult task.

However, Kenya Police FC refused to surrender and continued pushing forward in search of a way back into the contest.

Their persistence eventually paid off in the 85th minute when substitute Nana Kusi Asante produced a powerful effort that beat the Kakamega Homeboyz goalkeeper, reducing the deficit to 2-1 and setting up a tense finish.

With the match approaching its conclusion, Kenya Police FC mounted one final attacking move that completely changed the outcome.

Baraka Badi delivered a dangerous cross into the penalty area, where Christophe Ouattara rose to connect with a diving header, sending the ball into the net to level the score at 2-2.

The equaliser sparked celebrations among the Police FC players and technical bench, completing an impressive recovery after trailing by two goals.

The referee brought the encounter to an end after five minutes of added time, confirming a hard-earned away point for the law enforcers.

The results marked a successful weekend for the National Police Service football teams, with Kenya Police Bullets collecting maximum points while Kenya Police FC demonstrated the fighting spirit required to remain competitive in challenging away fixtures.

Beyond the results, the performances provided an opportunity for the Service-sponsored clubs to demonstrate the contribution of sport to teamwork, discipline, commitment and national sporting development.

The National Police Service congratulated both teams for their performances and encouraged them to maintain the same determination as they prepare for their upcoming league fixtures.
