Harambee Stars Defeat Morocco 1-0 in CHAN Tournament Amid Fan Conduct Concerns - August 2025

Under head coach Benni McCarthy, Kenya's Harambee Stars secured a 1-0 victory over Morocco in the CHAN tournament, despite playing with 10 men. This win followed a 1-1 draw with Angola where the team also had a numerical disadvantage, and it puts them on the verge of a historic quarter-final place. Footballer Boniface Muchiri was overwhelmed by the historic turnout of 48,000 fans, which he said played a crucial role in the victory. However, Kenya is at risk of losing its hosting rights for the quarterfinals due to fan misconduct, with CAF warning of severe penalties. Consequently, the Kenya Fans Association is demanding ticketing transparency from CAF and FKF for the upcoming match against Zambia, citing past security breaches.
