Cecafa U23 Cup: South Sudan avenge Kenya defeat to finish third

The final will be played on Friday between hosts Tanzania and Burundi

South Sudan have finished third in the Cecafa U23 Cup after defeating Kenya by a solitary goal.

Kariobangi Sharks attacker Dani Lual Gumanok scored the only goal to send the 10-man Emerging Stars home without a medal. The Stanley Okumbi-led charges had been reduced to a man less later into the game after Frank Odhiambo was sent off.

It was sweet revenge for the Sudanese who had lost 2-0 to Kenya in the group stage.
