Chan 2020: Kenya vs. Tanzania tie hangs in the balance

The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) are contemplating withdrawing the Harambee Stars from the African Nations Championship (Chan) qualifiers.

Kenya managed a 0-0 draw against Tanzania in the first leg in Dar es Salaam last week, but Goal can reveal the return leg set for Sunday at Kasarani might not be played.

This is after the Kenyan government failed to approve and remit the Sh19 million budget set aside by the FKF to prepare the team for the two-legged fixture.

According to FKF CEO Barry Otieno, should Kenya skip the return leg, then the country will face sanctions from Caf, which includes a two-year ban from all football-related activities.
