Tusker FC are the winners of the Kenyan Premier League Super Cup after edging out Gor Mahia FC in a marathon penalty shootout at Thika Stadium on Wednesday.
The tie which curtain raises a new league season pits league champions, in this case Tusker FC, against domestic Cup winners, Gor Mahia.
After a barren first half, Gor Mahia took the lead in the 55th minute from the spot through Samuel Onyango, but the lead barely lasted as Tusker were also awarded a penalty which Ibrahim converted to level things up.
The match straight to penalties after it ended 1-1.
