Afcon 2019: Harambee Stars will fight hard against Algeria - Wanyama

The Harambee Stars players are not under pressure whatsoever ahead of the first Africa Cup of Nations match against Algeria, captain Victor Wanyama has said.

Kenya and Tanzania are viewed as Group C's underdogs with Senegal and Algeria seen as the favourites, but Wanyama has warned that Kenya will fight for better results.

“I don’t think we are under pressure. We were under more pressure during qualification. Here we are out to enjoy the game and most importantly show that we are not pushovers,” Wanyama told reporters in Egypt.
