Defending champions Agoro Sare High School are one point away from making it to the semifinals of the Nyanza Region Secondary School football games after a good start on Wednesday.

Agoro Sare begun their title defense with a 1-1 draw with Kisumu Day in their rescheduled opening match played on Thursday. The match was postponed on Wednesday due to fan trouble.

Geoffrey Omondi gave Agoro Sare the lead in the 65th minute before Kisumu Day leveled the scores five minutes later through Brian Odiwuor as the two teams shared the spoils.

In their second match, Joseph Odhiambo scored a brace to lead Ambira to a 4-1 win over Ong'icha.

Geoffrey Omondi and Moses Omondi also hit the back of the net for Agoro Sare.

The win lifted the team to top of Group A with four points same as Koderobara.

Koderobara played out a 0-0 draw with Ong'icha before stunning Kisumu Day 2-1.

The result means Kisumu Day must beat Ong'icha with more than three goals and hope Koderobara loses to Agoro to progress.
