Unscheduled international friendlies hurting local football

Harambee Stars squad

Last Tuesday, a limping Kenya national football team, Harambee Stars, was haphazardly assembled to play a friendly match against Malawi at Kenyatta Stadium, in Machakos.

The match ended in a barren draw and Harambee Stars coach Stanley Okumbi maintained his unbeaten record. So, it’s okay, but that’s neither here nor there. Look, to guard unbeaten records, we can easily invite these small small teams from the region like Djibouti, Eritrea and Uganda, beat then seven nil and voila, we’ll forever remain unbeaten.
