National Under-20 football team, Rising Stars rallied from a goal down to edge Sudan 3-1 in a Cecafa Championship build-up match played yesterday at the Moi Stadium, Kasarani. Wanyama, who nearly gave Stars the lead in the second minute only for his attempt to be denied by a fully stretching Khamis Omer Yousif for a corner, was instrumental for Stars comeback. Hardly a minute into the second half, Okumbi rang his first change bringing in Steiner Musasia for Imbali who appeared weary in the final minutes of the first half. After engineering the second goal, Washe was rested for Stephen Otieno as Okumbi sought to spice up his attacking front. Sudan made their first change in the 69th minute, where Ismael Musa came in for an injured Yousif Abdelkarim.
