    MD2: Nairobi City Stars 1 Luanda Villa 0

    A Joshua Amunike goal two minutes after the restart was all Nairobi City Stars needed to edge out a spirited Luanda Villa 1–0 in a 2025/26 National Super League (NSL) matchday two encounter played at Ngong Vapor Grounds on Sunday, 5 October 2025.

    The decisive moment came when Abuyeka Kubasu floated in a teasing freekick that was flicked on by Jimmy Ndungi’s header, falling kindly to Amunike, who made no mistake slotting home from close range.

    The strike marked City Stars’ first goal in the second tier since Ebrima Sanneh’s winner in a 1-0 victory over Nairobi Stima at Camp Toyoyo on 14 March 2020.

    The win served as a perfect response to their opening-day 1-0 defeat away to MOFA at the Homabay Stadium on Sunday, 27 September 2025.

    Next up for Simba wa Nairobi is an away fixture against newly promoted Kabati Youth at Thika Stadium on Sunday, 12 October 2025, with kick-off set for 3 p.m.
