What Gor Mahia earned after finishing second in 2026 Cecafa Cup
K’Ogalo missed out on an additional few million after conceding late goal in extra time.
Kenyan football giants Gor Mahia secured $20,000 (Sh2.5 million) after finishing second in the 2026 Cecafa Club Cup, which concluded with a 2-1 defeat to Rwandan side Rayon Sports Club. The Rwandan champions claimed the title thanks to a stunning 97th-minute overhead kick by substitute Daniel Muhoza, who emerged victorious for the second time in Cecafa history.
Gor Mahia's previous successes in the tournament were in 1980, 1981, and 1985. The final saw Rayon take the lead in the 27th minute through Kameni Herman, who equalized in the 53rd minute for Gor. The match, held at the packed Amahoro Stadium in Kigali, was officiated by Omar Artan, who had recently been refused entry to the United States for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
