Back on Track| MSEAL Overcome Bidco United 2–1 After Gor Mahia Setback

Murang’a SEAL got back on track on 18th January 2026, posting a hard-fought 2–1 win over Bidco United in a SportPesa League encounter that showcased resilience and maturity, just days after their setback against Gor Mahia. It was the kind of response that underlined the team’s growing character and belief.

From the outset, MSEAL looked eager to set the tempo. Head coach Osborne Monday deployed a balanced formation that combined disciplined defensive shape with incisive forward transitions, particularly down the wings. Bidco United, sitting deep and compact, looked to frustrate the hosts by limiting space between the lines, but early pressure from the seals paid off.

The opener came in the fifth minute, when Paul Osama found room inside the box and finished calmly to put the hosts ahead. The early goal settled the seals, allowing them to dictate play and force Bidco into wide areas, where chances were limited.

Bidco United responded well in the second half, and Collins Akite levelled in the 55th minute with a composed finish after MSEAL’s defence was caught stretched. The goal sparked renewed intensity from the visitors, who began to enjoy longer spells in possession and probe for a second.

As the game approached its final stages, both teams sought to take control, but it was Murang’a SEAL who produced the decisive moment. With just minutes remaining, substitute Jackson Imbiakha unleashed a stunning strike from outside the box in the 87th minute, a thunderbolt that left the Bidco keeper rooted and the stadium erupting.

The result not only delivered three valuable points but also underlined MSEAL’s growing belief as they push further up the SportPesa League standings.
