The Green Legacy Cup
The match, dubbed the Green Legacy Cup, was played on 16 August 2026 and doubled as a pre-season run-out and a fundraising event. Gate collections came in at just over Ksh 1.1 million, Capital Sports reports, a figure that most clubs in the region would be glad to see in a competitive fixture, let alone a charity one.
Gate revenue in context
Drawing that kind of gate revenue for a friendly with no title implications reflects Gor Mahia's reach beyond Nairobi. The club's support base stretches across western Kenya, and a match involving Migori Youth, a side with roots in Migori County, will have carried local weight on both sides of the fixture.
No scoreline or individual match moments were included in the available reporting, so the on-pitch story remains untold for now. Capital Sports confirmed a seven-figure gate from a goodwill game.
