Ayub Timbe: Tanzania will give Harambee Stars the toughest test at Afcon

Kenya striker Ayub Timbe says the Harambee Stars' match against Tanzania will be their toughest encounter at the Africa Cup of Nations.

The Beijing Renhe forward believes that the rivalry between the two East African countries will make the Group C battle an exciting affair.

“Between the three teams in our Group, Tanzania will be the toughest, one because we are neighbours and secondly all of us are looking to play each other in a top competition,” Timbe is quoted by The Standard Newspaper.
