Kenya Intensify Training Ahead of Tanzania Clash

Harambee Stars have intensified training ahead of their 2020 CHAN qualification match against Tanzania scheduled for 28th July in Tanzania.

Kenya is set to take on Taifa Stars in what will be a rematch of the 2019 African Cup if nations where the two teams faced off in a Group C match. Kenya twice came from behind to beat Sebastien Migne’s charges at the Air Defence Stadium in Cairo.

Meanwhile, coach Sebastien Migne has admitted that Tanzania have an edge heading into the game as most of their CHAN squad players were part of the AFCON squad in Egypt.

“Of course it’s going to be tough against Tanzania. Most of the players they had at AFCON were local based and more experienced. We are working on building team spirit and I am confident that we will do well,” Migne told the Federation website.
