Mwendwa concedes Afcon chances slim but vows to stick with ‘Ghost’ Mulee

Football Kenya Federation (FKF) President Nick Mwendwa has openly stated he will not sack coach Jacob ‘Ghost’ Mulee and also admitted it will be hard for Harambee Stars to qualify for the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations finals after a 2-1 defeat to Comoros on Sunday.

Harambee Stars went into the match played in Moroni seeking their first win in the qualification campaign as they had drawn three of their last matches against Egypt, Togo, and Comoros.

However, they could not manage to secure a win as Comoros scored goals through Mohamed Ben El-Fardou and Mattoir Faiz to hand the Kenyan side a 2-1 defeat, with Cliff Nyakeya scoring the consolation.
