Kenyan record champions Gor Mahia went down fighting in their group B CECAFA Cup opener, losing by a solitary goal to Zambia champions Red Arrows on Wednesday night at the Azam Complex in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
James Chamanga scored the only goal for Arrows who are competing as a guest team in the 73rd minute.
Gor will return to action this Saturday for their 2nd fixture against Djibouti Telecoms, in a must match to revive their chances of playing in the last 8.
In an earlier yesterday fixture, Sudan’s Al Hilal eased past Telecoms, beating them 2-0 to take control of group B.
