Afcon 2019: I am happy Kenya are in Egypt and not watching from home, says Sebastien Migne

Sebastien Migne says Harambee Stars fans should be happy that the team is finally taking part in the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) after several years out.

Kenya will be making a return to the competition after a 15-year absence and have been pooled in Group C alongside Algeria, Senegal and Tanzania.

The Kenyan side will open their campaign with a tricky clash against the North African side at June 30 Stadium on Sunday.

This will be Kenya’s sixth appearance at the tournament and in the last five, they have never gone beyond the group stages, recording only one win in the 14 matches played since 1972.
