Gor Mahia keeper Onyango: Thika United blunder still hurts me

Former Gor Mahia custodian Jerim Onyango has revealed he still feels pain when he remembers the goal he conceded against Thika United that denied Gor Mahia the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) crown in 2012.

K’Ogalo were well-placed to win the league title after 17 years as they needed just a win against Thika United to clinch the title ahead of Tusker but instead, they settled for a 1-1 draw and thus allowing the Brewers to be crowned champions.

Gor Mahia had already taken the lead and were leading 1-0 before Onyango misjudged the flight of a cross allowing Kennedy Otieno to equalise for Thika United in the final game of the 2012 campaign.
