Harambee Starlets' hopes of reaching the quarter-finals of the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) now depend on a combination of favourable results and a convincing victory in their final Group A match after a hard-fought 1-0 defeat to Senegal.
The loss, Kenya's second straight defeat at the tournament, leaves Beldine Odemba's side rooted at the bottom of Group A without a point after conceding five goals and failing to score in their opening two matches.
Having suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat to tournament hosts Morocco in their opening fixture, the Starlets entered Thursday's clash against Senegal knowing that anything less than victory would leave their qualification hopes hanging by a thread.
