Siaya County football giants St Mary’s School Yala rallied from a goal down to hold hosts and Homa Bay County champions Our Lady of Mercy Ringa Boys to a 1-1 draw in a crucial Nyanza Region football boys’ Group B match played at Raila Odinga Stadium on Wednesday evening.
After a barren first half played in a fully packed and charged stadium, Hillary Ochieng gave Ringa the lead in the 70th minute after sending a low shot from the edge of the box for a 1-0 lead.
However, Yala who are favorites to win this year’s games refused to give up and scored deep into stoppage time when Enock Mwangangi blasted the ball after founding himself unmarked inside the box for a 1-1 draw.
