The dreaded curse of defending champions befell Bloggers
team who failed to defend the football title during this year’s SuperSport
Media Fun Day held Impala grounds. The Online scribes failed to win or score in
any of their four group matches ending with two defeats and two draws.
Led by captain Amos Abuga and boasting talents like the
lethally left-footed Kevin Otieno and prolific Stephen Ayoo, Bloggers started
their day with a barren draw against Media Max before registering the same result
against Citizen. Two 1-0 defeats followed at the hands of Standard and
Supersport.
Supersport would go on and lift the football title after
shocking a fine Capital FM side 1-0, Anita Nderitu netting an own goal in the
dying minutes.
However, the Bloggers didn’t leave the tournament empty
handed as they won medals after dominating in the 4x100m sprint relay. With polished
handovers, Bloggers destroyed the field finishing tops in both their semifinal
and final races.
Citizen won the 5-aside rugby competition after edging out Media
Select in sudden death.
The competition was held to celebrate sports journalism and
attracted participation from 10 media teams.
