Levis Okello’s strike in the 59th minute canceled out Abdalla Hassan’s 47th-minute goal to earn Nairobi City Stars a vital point from a matchday 30 FKF Premier League tie in Ruaraka on Sunday 14 May 2023.
Hassan sneaked to the far post to bundle home a cross ball from the right that was not attended to while Okello slammed home a rebound off the pole from an Edwin Buliba shot to salvage a point just as he had done in the last game against Ulinzi.
With an added point, Simba wa Nairobi improves to the 30-point mark to sit 15th as Bandari improved to the 48-point mark to stay sixth.
Next up for City Stars is an away game to AFC Leopards on Sunday 28 May 2023 in Nyayo Stadium starting at 3 p.m.
