By CELLESTINE OLILOMore by this AuthorFormer Kenyan Premier League champions Sofapaka on Friday beat AFC Leopards 3-2 at a rain-soaked Kenyatta Stadium in Machakos to keep alive their faint hopes of remaining in the top flight next season. Alfred Wekesa opened the scoring for the Leopards early on before Ezekiel Okare headed home the equaliser in the 14th minute from a Noah Abich free-kick. Okare then gave Batoto ba Mungu the lead in the 26th minute after yet again meeting Abich’s well-taken free-kick. Both teams struggled to the break before the heavens opened up with heavy showers slowing the game in the second half. Immediately after the match, the club management moved to sack the entire technical bench, including interim coach Ezekiel Akwana, his assistant Nicholas Muyoti and goal keeping trainer Dick Francis.
