Since Kenya lacks a stadium that meets the required standards set by both Fifa and Caf to host an international match, Harambee Stars have been hosting their matches at Mandela National Stadium in Kampala, Uganda.
However, due to logistical challenges, including limited flights from Polokwane to Johannesburg, the decision was made to host the match at Peter Mokaba Stadium.
Kenya’s Harambee Stars will Tuesday conclude their disappointing 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) qualifying campaign with a ‘home’ match against Namibia at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane, Limpopo province in South Africa.
Both teams have missed out on qualification for the 2025 Afcon finals in Morocco, making this Group ‘J’ game more of a formality, as they turn their attention to the 2026 World Cup qualifiers set to resume in March next year.
