Kenya is banking on Cameroon to beat Zimbabwe to improve their chances of making it to Morocco next year
Harambee Stars goalkeeper Bryne Omondi believes Kenya can still qualify for next year's AFCON by beating Zimbabwe and Namibia despite their chances looking slim.
The Michael Olunga-captained Stars are currently ranked third in Group J with four points. Undefeated Group leaders Cameroon boasts of 10 points, two ahead of second-placed Zimbabwe with Kenya hoping that Cameroon can do them a favour by defeating Zimbabwe to enable the East African nation to qualify as the second-place team from the group.

Simiti reveals hidden challenge holding back Harambee Stars in their quest for AFCON glory
Harambee Stars face challenges in their AFCON qualification campaign with defender Geoffrey Ochieng reflecting on the team's struggles.

"We have to redeem ourselves in the remaining two matches. We were expecting to get something from the matches against Cameroon, but we didn't despite playing well in the second leg. We are capable of winning the two matches and qualifying for the AFCON." Omondi revealed to Sports boom.

Engin Firat believes in miracles as Harambee Stars turn to the heavens for AFCON 2025 hope
Engin Firat has called on fans to pray as Kenya fights for AFCON qualification after setbacks.
The former KCB shot stopper, who has started in three of the four qualifiers played so far, regretted that the support from the 12th man hasn't been coming forth, much to the disadvantage of the team. Kenya played both their home matches in Uganda, denying Kenyans the opportunity to cheer their team.
"I don't think we would have dropped points in the two matches played. We played well in the two matches against Zimbabwe and Cameroon but honestly, it felt like we were honoring an away assignment. I am sure Kenyans would have shown up in big numbers to push us to get maximum points".
