'Denied penalty would have changed outcome against Gor Mahia' - AFC Leopards' Juma

The Ingwe official believes they can now focus on winning the FKF Premier League after losing in the cup final

AFC Leopards team manager Tom Juma believes the outcome against Gor Mahia in the Mashemeji Derby could have been different if the referee awarded them a penalty.

With Sunday's FKF Shield Cup final at Nyayo Stadium evenly balanced, K'Ogalo captain Haron Shakava challenged Ingwe attacker Elvis Rupia in the penalty area and despite the supporters hoping to see the referee point to the penalty spot, he waved play on.

The match eventually ended 0-0 in regulation time and the league's defending champion won on penalties.
