Former skipper backs Stars



Former Harambee Stars’ skipper and Santos assistant coach Musa Otieno maintains that the team can come out of the Namibia loss and rock the Togo boat in Lome over the weekend.

Otieno however urged the players to give 100 percent and make the fans back home happy intimating that nothing was impossible with commitment and dedication.

The former skipper was full of praise for the decision to have the team train in Ghana ahead of the crucial Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.

"I know the players morale might have gone low after the loss to Namibia as they failed to meet the fans expectations but I would urge them to forget the loss and work hard ahead of the very important Togo clash."

"Nothing is difficult as long as they fight as one team but am also happy the federation has taken time to take them to Ghana for preparations to give them more time to gel together and to improve the concentration in camp," Otieno told SuperSport.com.
