From our football correspondent Uneasy

Match

Ulinzi Stars out of the cup

Kenya Police ended it 0‑0. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

Squad

Timothy Odhiambo is the hero from the spot

A shoot-out is remembered by its ending, and this one ends with Timothy Odhiambo: 1 kept out, and a set of supporters who will describe every one of them for the next twenty years.

Match

6 matches without a win for Ulinzi Stars

The run now stands at 6, and the questions being asked around Ulinzi Stars are no longer polite ones.

Market

Only the photograph left for Timothy Odhiambo

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Timothy Odhiambo will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Ulinzi Stars the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

Boniface Andayi signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Boniface Andayi commits to Ulinzi Stars for another 2 years.

Squad

Boniface Andayi in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Ulinzi Stars this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Khotso Malope falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match

Tumiso Mogakwe’s goal not enough for Ulinzi Stars

Tumiso Mogakwe scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to AFC Leopards, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Player ratings

Ninety minutes of Tumiso Mogakwe at his very best

Marked 8.39. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Ulinzi Stars.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for John Kago

95 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Ulinzi Stars lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad

Ulinzi Stars count the cost of losing Boniface Muchiri

30 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Squad

Tempers go at Ulinzi Stars

Nadeo Argawinata was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

In brief
