Why there is great need for Kenya to qualify for the 2021 Afcon - Juma

Retired Harambee Stars midfielder Tom Juma has explained the need for the country to strive for a back-to-back African Cup of Nations qualifications.

Kenya were part of the 2019 finals in Egypt and, again as was the case with their predecessors, failed to make it into the knockout stages.

For the 2021 Afcon qualifications, Kenya have already amassed two points after 1-1 draws against African heavyweights Egypt and Togo, and are second on Group G's log where Comoros are the other opponents.
