Burundi’s victory over Seychelles has further killed off any slim hopes that Harambee Stars had of getting at least a playoff place in the World Cup qualifiers.
Harambee Stars’ loss to Gabon left them in a precarious situation as far as their 2026 World Cup qualification is concerned.
Benni McCarthy’s team find themselves with just six points from as many matches, 10 behind Group F leaders Ivory Coast and nine behind second-placed Gabon.
Kenya drew 3-3 away to The Gambia last Thursday before a 2-1 home loss to Gabon on Sunday.
