Defensive Kenya are three points away from making a return to the Africa Cup of Nations finals after frustrating Ethiopia to a barren draw in yesterday’s crucial Group F first leg match at a fully packed 60,000-seater Bahir Dar Stadium, in  Addis Ababa.

With Sierra Leone suspended, Harambee Stars, who last featured in the continental show-piece in 2004, now need to win against the Walya Antelopes in Sunday’s return leg at Kasarani to secure a ticket to next year’s finals in Cameroon with a game to spare.
