    Joshua Amunike scored a 90+6 penalty to salvage a 1-1 draw against home team 3K FC at the Moi Stadium, Embu, during a National Super League (NSL) matchday 18 tie played on Sunday 25 January 2026. 

    Substitute Alvine Mukudi made the most of an Abuyeka Kubasu pass to round his marker on the left wing to square a pass into the box that was handled at the end of the four added minutes to win the set piece.

    Amunike then sent home the spot kick to deny his former team 3K FC a much needed win with his eighth goal of the season.

    3K had taken the lead in the 68th minute through Alex Mwalimu Kazungu who got to the end of an Oscar Juma delivery.
