With the Slum Boys holding on to their lead heading into the break, they were surprised when the bankers restored parity in the dying minutes of the half when Vincent Wasambo restored parity for the Zedekiah Otieno men.
Mathare threw all they could but fell short once again in the 74th minute when striker Derrick Otanga gave the bankers the lead in what proved to be the winner.
