AFC Leopards put up a late show as they edged out visiting Bandari 2-0 to extend their FKF Premier League unbeaten run to five games in a match played at Dandora Stadium.

Ronald Sichenje broke the deadlock for Ingwe in the 72nd minute after having played out to a barren first half.

As the Dockers pushed for an equalizer, Leopards hit the final nail in the coffin as Victor Omune sealed the win for Ingwe with another goal in the 84th minute.

Victory lifted Leopards to fifth with 22 points, five points behind leaders KCB.

On the other hand, Bandari who also have 22 points slipped to sixth due to an inferior goal difference.

In an early kick off match staged at the same stadium, Ulinzi Stars ended their seven-game winless run after a 2-1 victory over Nairobi City Stars.

Kelvin Etemesi gave City Stars the lead after finding the back of the net in the 30th minute, a lead they would relinquish at the stroke of half time when Amatton Samunya restored parity at 1-1 heading to the break.

In the final half, Brian Kafero netted the winner for the soldiers who survived numerous attacks by City Stars including a goal by Dennis Oalo that was chopped off controversially due to offside.

Victory lifted Ulinzi out of the relegation zone into 15th with 16 points, two points above the danger zone.
