2021 Afcon Qualifier: Uganda Cranes depart for Burkina Faso

Uganda Cranes have left for Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso on Tuesday morning ahead of their 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against the hosts on Wednesday.

16 players left the East African nation at 1 am for the West African country hoping to start the campaign on a high note. Among those who have left with the first batch is Mamelodi Sundowns goalkeeper Dennis Onyango.

Allan Okello who was nursing a knock has also been included in the team. The KCCA youngster missed the national team's North East region trip last weekend where they played a build-up match against local side Katawi Combined.
