Just before halftime, Austin Odhiambo doubled the lead with a stunning long-range effort, beating the goalkeeper to leave Rangers chasing the game. Gédéon Bendeka, coming off the bench for the second match in a row, sealed the win with a late goal, making it two goals in two substitute appearances.

Gor Mahia have now scored seven goals in their first two matches without conceding, continuing their impressive form as they aim to defend their title.
