FKFPL: Four star Tusker outclass Vihiga Bullets but cede title to Gor Mahia
Despite a big win, the Brewers lost the title to their arch-rivals on the season's final day.
The visitors gradually came into the game, with the lively Joe Waithera proving a thorn in the side of Rangers defense, but he was not able to get the better of Brian Obiero from numerous attempts.
Former Chemelil Sugar defender Kennedy Odiambo probably had Posta Rangers best effort on goal in the first half, with his 37th minute shot forcing Ochuka into a sharp save in which he could only parry the ball away from the target.
Bandari were then able to contain Posta Rangers and the score was 0-0 at the interval following a first-half which had a few chances.
