Harambee Stars began their CECAFA Senior Championship title defense with a 1-0 win over neighbors Tanzania courtesy of a goal from Abdalla Hassan.
Kenya just needed four minutes to break the deadlock after Oscar Wamalwa set up Abdalla Hassan with a through ball that was dispatched into the net by the Bandari forward.
That proved to be the match-winner as Kenya next take on Sudan on Tuesday, December 10 with a win enough to see Harambee Stars sail through to the semi-finals of the tournament.
