By VINCENT OPIYOMore by this AuthorAFC Leopards avenged their 4-1 humiliation suffered at the hands of Bandari in February with a hard-fought 2-1 win in their reverse SportPesa Premier League clash at Kenyatta Stadium in Machakos on Sunday. This is Leopards' seventh win in 19 matches against Bandari and it takes their points tally to 34, 11 below third-placed Bandari, whose hopes of fighting for the title dwindled with the defeat - their sixth this term. Oburu drew the first blood on 16 minutes finishing off a rebound after Bandari goalkeeper Farouk Shikhalo parried Paul Were’s low shot. William Wadri’s shot from inside the box was blocked by Salim on 36 minutes as the Dockers pressed for the leveller. Leopards almost doubled the lead at the stroke of halftime through Oburu whose header veered off the target after Were had exchanged one-two passes with Brian Marita before the latter swung in a curling cross.
