Kenya coach Engin Firat started his reign as Harambee Stars boss with a humiliating 5-0 loss to Mali in Group E of the 2022 World Cup qualifiers on Thursday night.
The East Africans had hoped to get a positive outcome at Agadir Stadium in Morocco, but a hat-trick from Ibrahima Kone and an Adama Traore strike, coupled with a late own goal by substitute Farouk Shikhalo sealed the deal for the Eagles.
It was Kenya who threatened early as Aboud Omar picked his captain Michael Olunga in the first minute. The attacker positioned himself but his shot missed the target by inches.
