Bungoma JSS Finals Rocked by Horror Injury: Nzoia Sugar Goalkeeper Hospitalized After Brutal Challenge
A cloud of concern hangs over the Bungoma JSS 2025 Finals after a dramatic turn of events saw Nzoia Sugar JSS’s goalkeeper stretchered off and rushed to hospital. The young shot-stopper suffered a serious injury during a corner play following an unfair challenge by a Kisima JSS attacker.
The high-stakes match, which had electrified fans, was momentarily paused as medical teams rushed onto the field to administer first aid before evacuating the injured player. Spectators watched in stunned silence, with players from both sides visibly shaken by the incident.
Officials are yet to confirm the full extent of the injury, but prayers are pouring in from teammates, fans, and the wider JSS community for the young goalkeeper’s speedy recovery.
This incident has once again sparked calls for stricter enforcement of fair play and player safety rules in youth competitions.
“We’re praying for him. His health is more important than the game,” said a Nzoia Sugar JSS official.
