Match22 Aug 2026
Tusker are out and Muranga Seal go through, 0‑4 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Words at Muranga Seal training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Dennis Munyovi is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The crowd has taken to Paul Osama
At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.
