Kisumu City Stadium to host GOtv Shield actionAfter more than ten years, the newly refurbished Kisumu City Stadium will host top flight action this weekend.
The facility has been upgraded at a cost of more than Sh100million with world governing body Fifa donating a Sh50million astro-turf facility.
Kenyan Premier League champions Gor Mahia will take on GFC 105 at the venue on Saturday. Agro-Chemicals and Nairobi Stima will also play at the same venue in another GOtv Shield fixture.
On Sunday, the venue will host one match pitting Nyakach United against KPL side Muhoroni Youth.
But speaking ahead of the fixture, Gor Mahia Deputy Secretary General Ronald Ngala says the team is considering asking for a postponement of the match.
“We picked so many injuries against Nakuru Top Fry on Wednesday and as a result the coach has asked that we postpone the fixture. We are still thinking about it before making the request. We do not know whether Football Kenya Federation will take our request,” Ngala told Goal.
