Benni McCarthy has made 9 changes to the starting line up that played during the first friendly clash against Chad last Saturday for their second clash tonight.
In a bold and strategic move, Harambee Stars head coach Benni McCarthy has rung the changes ahead of the second international friendly against Chad, opting for a refreshed and youthful starting XI that features nine new faces.
The starting line-up is headlined by goalkeeper Faruk Shikhalo, who returns to the fold and will wear the gloves for this crucial tie. In defense, Siraj Mohammed, Sylvester Owino, Swaleh Pamba, and Lewis Bandi form a new-look backline tasked with keeping Chad at bay.
In midfield, the technical duo of Alpha Onyango and Austine Odhiambo will anchor the engine room, with support from the energetic William Lenkupae and the versatile Ben Stanley Omondi.
