By holding Gor to a goalless draw last evening, Sofapaka has
now joined Karuturi as the masters of the drawn game against Gor. Their defensive
approach ensured they got their fifth draw against Gor in 8 league games since
they stepped into the top tier four seasons ago. Only Mathare United (6 draws,
66.7% of games played) has held K’ogalo to more draws over the past five
seasons. Here are top 6 teams in terms
of percentage ratios (draws against number of games played) who have set out to
frustrate Gor with draws (only teams who have played Gor in 2 or more seasons).

By failing to concede in the game against K’ogalo, Sofapaka -0.6%-
remains second behind Karuturi – 0.4% (with the exception of Oserian &
Muhoroni Youth who joined the league this season) as the teams to have conceded
the least average number of goals against K’ogalo, a testimony to the number of
draws played. Sofapaka has conceded 5 goals in 8 games while Karuturi has only
conceded 4 in 9 games. With a game still remaining against Karuturi in Nairobi,
K’ogalo will have another chance to improve on that stat before the season
ends.
