Nairobi — Eugene Asike powered home a bouncing header at the stroke of full time as Tusker FC came from a goal down to beat defending champions Gor Mahia 2-1 at the Ruaraka Complex to move four points clear at the top of the BetKing Premier League standings.
Tito Okello broke the deadlock for Gor in the 14th minute, but a concerted second half performance from the league leaders saw Tusker rise back.
Boniface Muchiri scored a sumptuous freekick 10 minutes after the restart to draw Tusker level before Asike headed home in the 90th minute off Sammy Meja’s corner.
The win takes Tusker four points ahead of KCB who they face on Sunday while Gor drop 11 points behind the leaders, putting their title defense in hot water.
