Comoros 2-1 Kenya: Les Coelacantes go top, Harambee Stars suffer first group loss

Comoros went top of Group G after beating Kenya 2-1 in an African Cup of Nations qualifiers at Le Stade Omnisports Malouzini, Moroni on Sunday.

Mohamed Ben El-Fardou and Mattoir Faiz scored the goals for Les Coelacantes and Harambee Stars denied them a clean sheet courtesy of Cliff Nyakeya’s effort.

Masoud Juma almost scored his second goal of this encounter when he connected to a high ball sent to him by Arnold Origi but he was put under pressure by two of Comoros defenders and ended up losing the ball as the referee awarded a goal kick in the third minute.
