Mulee: Kenya coach satisfied with spirit against Togo after four players ruled out

Harambee Stars coach Jacob 'Ghost' Mulee is impressed with the way the players responded on the pitch against Togo even after realizing some key players had been controversially omitted owing to reports they were Covid-19 positive.

Michael Olunga, Joash Onyango, Ian Otieno, and Lawrence Juma missed the game but the East Africans went on to win 2-1. Abdallah Hassan opened the scoring for the Harambee Stars before Masoud Juma doubled the advantage. The Sparrowhawks got their goal courtesy of Henri Eninful.

"I thank the players because even after some of them were denied the opportunity to play, the remaining ones did not panic," Mulee told Goal on Tuesday.
