Having started on the bench in the first leg, Owino was introduced in the second fixture as part of McCarthy’s rotation.

The center-back rose to the occasion with a solid performance, helping the team keep a clean sheet in the 2-0 win.

His strong positioning and aerial presence made a noticeable difference, even with limited minutes.

Omija was trusted to start in central defense in the first leg, and while the match lacked attacking intensity, he did everything asked of him.

Calm and composed, he snuffed out Chad’s few threats and showed great maturity on the ball.

Though he didn’t start the second match, his steady first-leg performance keeps him in the national team conversation.

Odhiambo began the first leg on the bench but made an instant impact after being subbed in.

His sharp passing and forward drive brought much-needed urgency to Kenya's attack.

Rewarded with a start in the second leg, the midfielder impressed again, pulling strings from midfield and helping unlock Chad’s defense.

While he didn’t register a goal, his creativity was instrumental in the win.

Alpha Onyango was a standout across both fixtures. Starting in both matches, he was central to Harambee Stars' stability in midfield.

He dictated play in the draw and was even more influential in the return leg, breaking up attacks and transitioning play effectively.

His ability to read the game and control tempo made him arguably the most consistent and impactful Gor Mahia player in the series.

With these performances, the Gor Mahia quartet showed they belong on the international stage and will hope to have caught Benni McCarthy's attention to feature more oftenly for Harambee Stars.
