Gor Mahia delivered a fine performance to beat five-time Africans champions Zamalek 4-2 in Nairobi last weekend to take command of Group D.
Hammering the Group’s best side before facing the likes of NA Hussein Dey and Atlético Petróleos de Luanda, Mahia players and the fanbase have the right to believe they can make history by going all the way.
In addition to possibly writing new history, how will the financial benefits look like for the Kenyan giants?
