In the 12th minute, Wazito threatened but were denied by a quick and superb save by Humphrey Katasi, who stopped Boniface Omondi’s strike. Katasi made another save in the 26th minute when he reacted quickly to stop Michael Owino’s header. The visiting goalkeeper had a tough time in the latter stages of the first half as he was also needed to deny Wazito in the 30th minute when Musa Masika tried to find the top corner with a swinging strike from outside the penalty area. Owino’’s header in the 39th minute hit the woodwork and Nzoia Sugar survived from conceding an opener as Wazito attacked from all angles.
