Bottom-placed Mount Kenya United shock Zoo Kericho on return from ‘exile’

Mount Kenya United put their troubles aside to bag maximum points against Zoo Kericho in a Kenyan Premier League (KPL) match played on Sunday.

The Nairobi-based side had just given a walkover to Gor Mahia on Thursday after players refused to play, demanding for unpaid salaries.

Despite the shambolic preparations, the Melis Medo led side gave their best on the pitch to claim maximum points. After settling early and pinning their opponents in their own half, the visitors lacked composure in front of the goal.

When it seemed that the first half will end goalless, Norman Werunga capitalized on defensive lapses to score for his team in the 44th minute.
