Gor Mahia were shocked 4-1 by APS Bomet in their league encounter at Nyayo Stadium on Saturday, but how did they actually pull it off?
On Tuesday afternoon, struggling FKF Premier League newcomers APS Bomet pulled off the upset of all upsets by stunning Gor Mahia 4-1 in a clash that took place at the Nyayo National Stadium.
It was one of the worst afternoons in recent history for the side, who are in the hunt to reclaim the title they lost to Kenya Police last season.
Even more interesting is the fact that the game was held just four days before the original scheduling of the Mashemeji Derby on 29th November, although that fixture is now set to be postponed due to facility unavailability issues.

Gor Mahia Gate Collections Drop by Hundreds of Thousands in 4-1 Defeat to APS Bomet
Gor Mahia made significant losses to their gate collection revenue on an afternoon when they were shocked 4-1 by APS Bomet last Tuesday.
Although one may argue that Gor Mahia had rotated their squad heavily with an eye on the weekend game, considering most of their heavy-hitters had taken part in the international break and had played just three days prior against Tusker, it was a generally shocking game to lose.
In the match, Hansel Ochieng netted a hat trick, while Rodgers Kipkemoi hit the nail in Gor Mahia’s coffin with a fourth goal, again after being set up by the former AFC forward from the counter attack.
But how exactly did Ochieng poop Gor Mahia’s party? Pulse Sports analyses what went on during the clash.
How Did Gor Mahia Line Up?
Possibly with an eye on the now-postponed Mashemeji Derby, head coach Charles Akonnor named a heavily rotated squad for the clash.
He started in a 4-3-3 formation, with Joshua Onyango starting alongside Mike Kibwage at center back. Samuel Kapen and Levin Odhiambo started at full back, while in midfield, Lawrence Juma and George Amonno were preferred instead of Enock Morrison and Austin Odhiambo.
Upfront, Ben Stanley Omondi and Chris Ochieng started, with Ebenezer Adu-Kwaw the only previous starter that kept his place.
How did APS Bomet Line Up?
Bob Cetric started in goal. Duke Alunda, Chris Ahoro, Edward Masembe and Joseph Ahiro were the backline.
Francis Omondi and Anthony Waibei were the midfielders, with Lawrence Kibet and Rodgers Kipkemoi starting on the flanks. Philip Wasai and Hansel Ochieng were the two strikers upfront.

Hansel Ochieng Nets Hat-Trick as Struggling APS Bomet Shock Gor Mahia Ahead of Mashemeji Derby
Hansel Ochieng's hat-trick was enough as APS Bomet came from behind to shock Gor Mahia 3-1 on Wednesday afternoon.
How Hansel’s Movement Proved the Catalyst for APS Bomet’s Shock Win
Although Ochieng’s hat-trick and assist were the headline stats, it was his off-the-ball movement that truly disrupted Gor Mahia’s defensive organisation, dragging markers out of position and creating crucial spaces.
The buildup to APS Bomet’s first goal—a penalty controversially awarded after Kibwage was incorrectly judged to have fouled Wasai—showcases this perfectly.
In the accompanying visual, Ochieng drops deep to receive possession, pulling Kibwage out of position.

Ochieng calmly converted the penalty to equalise. Moments later, his intelligent movement proved even more damaging during a counterattack. He timed his run to latch onto a precise channel ball from Kibet, exploiting the space behind Gor Mahia’s defence before slotting home.

The Decisive Fourth Goal: Exploiting Gor Mahia’s High Line
In the 86th minute, with Gor Mahia pushing men forward to reduce the deficit, APS Bomet capitalised on a swift counterattack.
Midfielder George Amonno lost possession carelessly, allowing the ball to be played quickly to Ochieng.

Isolating Kibwage one-on-one, Ochieng’s threat drew the attention of Sylvester Owino, who was providing cover. This distraction opened space for Rodgers Kipkemoi to make a timely run. [INSERT]

Hansel Ochieng’s tactical intelligence and movement off the ball were the driving forces behind APS Bomet’s biggest top-flight triumph. His ability to pull defenders out of position, exploit gaps, and combine clinical finishing not only unsettled Gor Mahia’s shape but also created the platform for a dominant, confident performance.
This game will be remembered as a masterclass in movement and counterattacking efficiency.
