Sunday’s FKF Premier League fixtures delivered exciting encounters, dramatic comebacks and late goals as Posta Rangers, Kenya Police and Murang’a Seal secured valuable points in their respective matches.

Posta Rangers recorded an important 2-1 victory over Mathare United at Embu Stadium, with Robert Ponda emerging as the hero after scoring both goals for the Mailmen.

Ponda opened the scoring in the 16th minute, giving Rangers an early advantage before doubling their lead shortly after the interval. His brace proved crucial in helping the team secure their second league victory of the season and move out of the relegation zone.

Mathare United attempted to stage a late comeback when Elli Asieche converted a penalty five minutes before full-time. However, goalkeeper John Njau produced an important late save to ensure Rangers held on for maximum points.

At Bukhungu Stadium, Kenya Police demonstrated their fighting spirit after coming from two goals down to secure a 2-2 draw against Kakamega Homeboyz.

The hosts appeared comfortable after Thomas Omole and Dennis Iguma found the back of the net to establish a commanding lead. However, Nana Kusi Asante and Chris Outtara scored late goals to rescue a point for the police-sponsored side.

The draw extended Homeboyz’s winless run to four matches, leaving them in the relegation zone, while Police extended their unbeaten streak to four games and moved to nine points.

Meanwhile, Murang’a Seal also produced an impressive comeback against Ulinzi Stars, recovering from a two-goal deficit to earn a 2-2 draw.

Joseph Ochieng and Alex Masinde scored for the Soldiers before Josephat Logapa reduced the deficit with his seventh goal of the campaign. Mark Mwaniki subsequently completed the comeback with a late equaliser.

The results underlined the competitive nature of the FKF Premier League, with late goals proving decisive in Sunday’s three encounters.
