Police have been forced to use teargas to disperse Harambee Stars fans outside Kasarani Stadium, venue for the much-awaited clash between Kenya and Ethiopia.

Thousands of football fans trooped into the Kasarani Stadium for the match; with fans starting to stream into the venue as early as six and more are still queuing at the gates.

Security, however, is tight in and out of the stadium. Police officers and members of the National Youth Service were deployed to man all entrances.
