My beloved Gor Mahia had fought gallantly to hold Esperance 2-2 in Tunis and Kasarani was pregnant on this day, the title was going to be delivered. A few pessimists feared a repeat of the 1979 finals when Gor Mahia was mauled by Cameroon side Canon Younde. But as it is said, lightning does not strike twice, Gor Mahia was never going to allow this title to leave Kenya. Gor Mahia had come all the way to the finals unbeaten. Despite the Tunisians forcing an equaliser, Gor Mahia were declared champions.
