Othaya Green Army Turns Up the Heat in Murang’a – Santos Cruise to a 4–0 Away Masterclass

Othaya Green Santos FC made the short trip to Kiranga Primary School in Murang’a County and turned it into a long afternoon for the hosts, bottom-placed Kiranga FC, with a dominant 4–0 away victory that had the Green Army smiling all the way back to Othaya.

The first half was a cautious affair, with Kiranga FC trying to make home advantage count. But once the second half whistle blew, it was all Santos — and the goals came faster than the home fans could recover.

Robert broke the deadlock, opening the scoring and setting the tone for what followed. Kamau then doubled the advantage with a calm finish that sucked the air out of the Kiranga faithful. Moments later, Alphonce continued his fine form, grabbing his second goal in as many matches, neatly converting after a well-timed assist from Simiyu.

Just when Kiranga FC thought the storm had passed, Mr. Kamau returned to put the game firmly on life support — and then switched off the machines — by adding the fourth goal to seal a commanding 4–0 scoreline. Game over, no VAR required.

The travelling supporters from Othaya made themselves heard throughout, leaving the home fans feeling the full heat of the Green Army invasion. It was a professional, ruthless performance on the road — exactly how promotion-chasing teams do their business.

With this win, Othaya Green Santos FC cement 2nd place in the FKF Division Two – Eastern Zone C, after Game Number 8, and continue to look every inch like a team with serious ambitions.

Next stop: keep the momentum, keep the pressure, and keep the goals flowing. The Green train has no brakes.

Venue: Ten Engineers Grounds

Othaya Green Santos FC suffered their first defeat of the season as they went down 4–2 away to a clinical 4Kings FC side in a high-tempo encounter at Ten Engineers Grounds, Nanyuki. It marked a challenging afternoon in what was Game 4 of the campaign.

Match Overview

The match began at an intense pace, with both teams looking to impose themselves early. 4Kings FC capitalised on home advantage, pressing aggressively and converting key chances during momentum swings.

  • Attacking response: Scoring twice away from home reflected character and belief.
