The Derby of Kenya

The Derby of Kenya is here with us. Yes, Iam talking about the much anticipated duet between Kenya's two most successful and most supported clubs of all time. AFC Leopards locks horns with bitter arch-rivals turned friend and now back to the familiar foe status after the recent collapse of a loose coalition pack a couple of weeks ago.The Wednesday 26th May floodlight encounter at Nyayo Stadium from 7PM will mark the highlight of KPL's explosive first leg that has produced more shocking results than ever with the defending champions Sofapaka geeting soccer lessons from teams that were not highly rated at the begining of the season. The wednesday match will definately be mouth watering since both teams are under immense preassure from success loving fans who do not anticipate anything less than a win. "The Kogalo vs Ingwe encounter is not just a match, but a way of life statement that goes beyond the three points of the premier league," confessed Fred Lutta, the Leopards fans national coordinator. He urged all the supporters of Ingwe to turn up in large numbers clad in their popular replica jerseys to cheer their favorite team.(Posted on Monday 23/5/10 at 10am by Raba D'Cruz)
