Tempers go at Kakamega Homeboyz

Joshua Nyatini 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.

Kakamega Homeboyz supporters have found a favourite in Oliver Machaka

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Oliver Machaka has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Joshua Nyatini sends Kakamega Homeboyz past Muranga Seal
