Olunga slotted home after pouncing on a rebound after Paul Were’s shot had hit the bar in the 68th minute to give the Harambee Stars, who were without skipper Victor Wanyama, a historic win over the hosts. David Owino, who skippered Kenya in Wanyama’s absence, was paired with Brian Mandela in central defence. Aboud Omar and Jockins Atudo were deployed in fullback positions as coach Stanley Okumbi set up his side in search of his second win since taking over from Bobby Wiliamson. The DRC’s attacking duo of Firmin Mubele and Jonathan Bolingi troubled the Harambee Stars’ backline early on before the latter was stretched out injured and replaced by Yannick Bolassie with six minutes to the break.
