All Stars defender apologizes for own goal blunder

Gor Mahia defender Harun Shakava has apologized to fans for conceding an own goal against Hull City in a friendly on Monday night.

Shakava scored what turned out to be the winning goal for Hull City despite SportPesa All Stars managing to pull a consolation courtesy of Humphrey Mieno. Eliot Holmes had scored the opening goal for English Premier League side, soaring high to beat goalkeeper Patrick Matasi with a looping header.

The K’Ogalo defender has taken to social media to ask for forgiveness from fans and promised to do his best for the team in next assignment.
