Harambee Starlets striker Mwanalima Adam has revealed the pain of losing to Zambia in the Olympic qualifiers pushed them to win the 2019 Cecafa Women’s Senior Challenge Cup trophy.
The Kenyan team defied all the odds and beat Tanzania’s Kilimanjaro Queens 2-0 to lift the regional trophy in the final played at Chamazi Stadium in Dar es Salaam on Monday.
Prior to heading to Tanzania for the Cecafa tournament, Kenya had suffered a painful exit from the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Qualifiers after they lost to Zambia 1-0 away after a 2-2 draw at home.
