Benni McCarthy makes South African-based defender his first Harambee Stars call-up
New Harambee Stars coach Benni McCarthy has handed a lifeline to the South African-based defender after including him in his squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
“We had a good plan with the team. Our goal was to secure at least a point away, and we managed to achieve all three," stated Cheche.
"However, two goals are not enough to guarantee qualification to the next round, so we have to plan effectively. We have a tough task to ensure that we keep a clean sheet and avoid conceding at home,” added the Starlets tactician.
