William Wadri and Umar Kasumba scored in Bandari FC's 7-2 rout as Deogratius Ojok's Tusker closed in on Gor Mahia FC in the Kenya Premier League title chase.
William Wadri and Umar Kasumba were on target as their club Bandari routed Vihiga Bullets to a 7-2 victory on Sunday in the Kenya Premier League.
Abdallah Hassan opened the floodgates shortly after kickoff and doubled the lead in the 3rd minute before Wadri tripled the lead five minutes later.
The visitors pulled one back but things turned from bad to worse as Kasumba restored the three-goal cushion in the 20th minute.
Kasumba completed his brace just before the break as the coastal Kenya side took a 5-2 lead into the second half, where they added two more.
The win took Bandari to 6th place with 44 points and Kasumba’s tally to seven this season.
In the other games, Deogtaius Ojok played 60 minutes as his Tusker FC grabbed a vital 1-0 win over Homeboyz to move to 61 points, two behind leaders Gor Mahia who were held to a goalless draw against Wazito.
Patrick Kaddu, Shafiq Kagimu and Peter Lwasa all started from the bench for the John McKinstry-coached Gor Mahia side.
