“I do not think Stars are in their best shape to play the Pharaohs on Thursday,” Posta Rangers head coach Sammy Omollo told Goal ahead of this week's Africa Cup of Nations qualifier. “Preparations are not only done on the pitch, but they also involve a lot, including accommodation.
"The sideshows we have been seeing regarding accommodation in Egypt might affect the team psychologically," he added. "It will be a tall order for Kenya to get a positive result from their hosts.”
Omollo spoke his mind prior to Kenya’s match against Egypt in Alexandria, in the Harambee Stars' opening fixture during the qualification campaign for the Africa Cup of Nations.
