Geita Gold - DWLWD

Geita Gold could only salvage a point from their last game, which was an encounter against Mtibwa Sugar. In that game, Geita Gold were behind in the 15th minute, with Jimson Stephen scoring for Sugar. However, Yussuf Mhilu leveled the scores for Geita Gold in the 20th minute of the game, while Valentino Mashaka put them in the lead just 16 minutes later. However, Geita Gold did not continue where they stopped in the first half, and they saw themselves concede the second of the game, which gave Mtibwa Sugar a point in that game, thanks to Omary Ally Marungu’s goal. Going to host this game, Geita Gold have now seen their last three home games end without a defeat. In the meantime, they have scored six in their last five home matches, while they conceded eight in that run.
