On a chaotic Friday afternoon at Utalii Grounds in Nairobi, Ulinzi Stars fought back to earn a 1-1 draw against Posta Rangers in a Football Kenya Federation Premier League match on January 14, 2022.
Center referee Lucas Odhiambo's decisions sparked heated moments, including three red cards and a missed penalty. The drama unfolded as Posta Rangers' technical bench protested a penalty awarded to Ulinzi Stars, leading to a five-minute stoppage in play.
Referee Odhiambo showed red cards to Posta Rangers coach Stanley Okumu, his assistant Collins Omondi, and goalkeeper trainer Victor Omondi, forcing them to leave the pitch. However, Ulinzi Stars' Kevin Ouma missed the penalty, pushing his effort wide and hitting the post.
The draw extended Ulinzi Stars' winless run to three matches, while Posta Rangers maintained their unbeaten streak at six matches. The match saw Ulinzi Stars remain 12th on the log with 16 points from 12 matches, while Posta Rangers stayed fifth with 22 points from 13 matches.
