A.F.C. Leopards vs Sofapaka abandonment[]

The match between A.F.C. Leopards and Sofapaka was abandoned in the 87th minute, moments after the latter's second goal through , after fans stormed the pitch in protest of the officiating. Security personnel present at the Nairobi City Stadium where the match was taking place were forced to launch tear gas canisters onto the angry mob, while one linesman left with his head badly injured. An ambulance and a SuperSport van were also damaged after being stoned by the fans.[14]

Before the match's abandonment, other incidences of crowd trouble arose from the Ingwe fans. Spectators began throwing bottles and stones deep into the first half, after Austin Ikenna was flagged offside just four minutes before 's opening goal in the 26th minute, forcing a stoppage of about three minutes to restore calm in the stadium.[15]

The following day, the Football Kenya Federation fined A.F.C. Leopards a sum of Ksh. 500,000 (approx. US$5,590 or £3,500), ordered the club to pay the medical expenses for the injured fans and match officials, as well as play its remaining matches for the season behind closed doors. West Kenya Sugar, the loser of the other semi-final of the day, were also handed an automatic third-place playoff win as part of the sanctions.[16]
