The Confederation of African Football (CAF) said the Kenyan team refused to take coronavirus tests before the match in the Comoros capital Moroni in November and only did so when Comoros football officials insisted.
CAF said, Mr Barry Otieno, the general secretary of the Football Kenya Federation, and Mr Ronny Oyando, the Kenyan team manager, disputed the results …. snatched them … and tore them apart.
Four Kenyan players including the skipper Victor Wanyama had tested positive for the coronavirus, yet they took part in the game
Both Otieno and Oyando were each slapped with a six month ban from all football activities for their actions.
Kenya had previously been fined one million shillings by CAF following a security breach in the first leg of the qualifier which ended 1-1 at the Nairobi’s Kasarani stadium.
