As in politics, Deputy President William Ruto and Coalition for Reforms leader Raila Odinga will be on opposing sides as the curtains on the World Cup come down from 10pm tonight at Rio de Janeiro's Maracana Stadium.
Arch-rivals Germany and Argentina lock horns in what will seem as the repeat of two consecutive world cup finals of 1986 where Argentina won and 1990 where Germany dethroned them.
Interestingly, though, Ruto will be supporting Argentina alongside Raila's co-principals in CORD, Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka and Senator Minority leader Moses Wetangula. Similarly, Leader of Majority in the National Assembly Aden Duale switches camp tonight to Raila's side, in support of Germany.
Notably, today's premier event showdown will be the first sports contest in history watched live by one billion people. Only the Olympic opening ceremony comes close to matching the one billion figure. England fans are expected to blow a massive £40m betting on the match.
Opposition rivalry between Raila and Amani coalition leader Musalia Mudavadi, who is on the Argentina side, will remain as Mudavadi, though feeling Germany has some chance, is on the Argentina side.
