Biography
Duncan Aketch Ochieng (born 31 August 1978) is a Kenyan footballer who plays for Kenyan Premier League side Sofapaka as a goalkeeper. He spent the majority of his career at Mathare United, where he spent 16 years in 4 different stints. He also previously played for now defunct Mumias Sugar, V.League 1 side Sông Lam Nghệ An and Swedish Division 2 side IK Sleipner. He has also made several appearances for the Kenya national team, with whom he won the 2013 CECAFA Cup on home soil. He played the full 90 minutes in the final against Sudan, keeping a clean sheet to help his side to a 2–0 win and a 6th regional title.
During a 2013 FKF President's Cup semi-final on 20 October 2013, a shocking goalkeeping blunder by Ochieng allowed Allan Wanga of A.F.C. Leopards to seal a 2−0 win to take his side to the final. With Wanga sent through on goal by Mike Baraza, Ochieng rushed out to clear the danger, comically missing the ball and leaving Wanga with an empty net to score in.
