Gor Mahia assistant coach Sammy Omollo believes snubbed players have a chance to make it back to the national team with improved performances for their respective teams.
Captain Victor Wanyama, Johanna Omolo, Eric Johana, Ayub Timbe, Brian Mandela, and Patrick Matasi are some of the players who were not involved for the Harambee Stars in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. Among those who got a chance are Daniel Sakari, Danson Namasaka, Abdallah Hassan, Clifton Miheso, Nahashon Alembi, Elvis Rupia and Johnstone Omurwa, among others who were given a chance.
The local-based players went on to put on an impressive performance in the Afcon Group G qualifier against Egypt, a match that eventually ended 1-1.
