STARS ABROAD: Good day in office for Sichenje, Oduor

Kenyan international Collins Sichenje inspired KuPS to beat Inter Turku 1-0 at the Veritas Stadium on Saturday.

Sichenje who started at the heart of the defence clocked full time, helping KuPS keep a clean sheet in the process.

The former AFC Leopards man demonstrated composure throughout as he successfully walked the disciplinary tightrope for the better part of the game as he was cautioned barely six minutes into the game.

A late penalty by Axel Vidjeskog was enough to give the visiting team a win.

Similarly, Stars left-back Clarke Oduor played a part in Bradford City’s 4-1 win over Newport County in an English League 2 game played at the Rodney Parade Stadium.
