00:01Eritrea get us under way then.
00:04Match day one in Group D.
00:05A call of occasion for the Africa Cup of Nations.
00:16Oshieng to Omar, Oshieng again picks up the ball,
00:19pings the cross in, well punched away though.
00:23By Yonathan Sultan.
00:29Kena will get the throw-in over on that far side.
00:33He appears to be playing quite an advanced midfield role here
00:36rather than his usual defensive midfield.
00:40Although he plays for Charleston Athletic in the second tier,
00:44in and out of the side there, the 22-year-old.
00:49Now a ball over the top and the keeper stayed on this line here,
00:51opportunity knocks for Kena.
00:52Good twist, good turn, brilliant save from Sultan.
00:58Ryan Ogham tonight.
01:08It's a long strike earlier this week.
01:11We've got unpaid money and feeling they should be treated better by the Kenyan Football Federation.
01:25a long ball there, chipped into the area.
01:29Sultan quickly off his line.
01:32And the ball given away swiftly.
01:34Inviting pressure here, the shot comes in.
01:37Oh, that's a really good save from Sultan again.
01:39This time Mika Rubiero letting fly from distance.
01:45That's the second save he's had to make of note.
01:50Now brings the ball over halfway.
01:53Suleiman in behind here.
01:55Suleiman with the finish and a good save from Odiambo, the first he's had to make this afternoon.
02:00Well, there's the danger for Kenya.
02:03And they've given the ball away on the edge of their own box.
02:05Another shot comes in and there's the opener.
02:08And Eritrea have taken the lead.
02:1136 minutes in, drama here in Nairobi.
02:15And look at the celebrations from the bench.
02:24Wow.
02:26They hadn't created a chance the whole first half.
02:30And just as Suleiman had a chance, well saved by Odiambo, Kenya giving the ball away on the edge of
02:36their own area.
02:38And they've given away the lead as well.
02:48What a story unfolding here in Nairobi.
02:54Poor touch here.
02:56Ball given away.
02:58Suleiman winning it.
03:02And the shot slotted in from the edge of the area.
03:08Suleiman winning it.
03:10Brilliant finish from Nehob Netabek.
03:21Up there for him.
03:25At the moment, Kenya lost possession for the last couple of minutes but not finding a way through.
03:30Now a little bit of space opens up for Acquara.
03:34They try to pass their way through this Eritrean back line at the moment.
03:41They've got nine players behind the ball, the shot comes in from, what, 40 metres?
03:48A bit of frustration, I think, just starting to show for the Kenyans.
03:59Xieng looks like he's at swap flanks for the moment.
04:04It's a slightly heavy touch from Mabiero as he tried to trick his way past.
04:09Mostly for the...
04:11I'd say Jamal Ali went down a couple of times before finally being substituted now.
04:16Bit of pace being added down that right flank.
04:18Good play there, the ball comes in.
04:19Oh, and the shot goes just wide from Ogham.
04:24And the keeper got a palm to the cross, coming into the six-yard box.
04:27Ogham was there with the first-time shot.
04:30And from close range there, he somehow missed the target.
04:34Really good driving run, though, from Mabiero.
04:39Getting in behind his man, that's what they need a bit more of here.
04:42The keeper just got a hand on the cross.
04:46Next, with the Red Sea Club, back in his native Eritrea.
04:54Played into the near post.
04:57Scooped over the bar by Franco Di Ambo.
05:06And the referee decides that's enough for the first half here.
05:10And sensation...
05:36An opportunity here for Oshiek to run at Forge.
05:39And he's got the legs on him here, Oshiek.
05:41He's got the legs on him here, Oshiek.
05:42Oshiek drives into the area, brushes off the challenge.
05:45But where's the cross going?
05:48Three men waiting for it.
05:49It was near any of them.
05:52Okuaro now on the edge of the area.
05:57And on Yango.
06:00Okuaro again.
06:05Just not moving the ball quick enough to really get the Eritrean defense out of shape at the moment.
06:11On Yango tries to lay that one off.
06:16Ball goes up back central again.
06:18Obuya.
06:21So Obuya and Duma over the ball here.
06:29Oshiek.
06:29So Glejski.
06:31Organizing the defense around him.
06:35Six players in and around that six-yard box.
06:38Ball comes in, headed away.
06:39Before the keeper could get there.
06:43And Yango.
06:45Why is he having the shot from distance there, Rooney on Yango?
06:59That's a bit.
07:00Getting quite a few touches here after coming on.
07:03Into the last 20 minutes now.
07:05Kenya still looking for an equalizer.
07:07Oguam.
07:08Fires it into the side netting.
07:27More changes incoming for the Haranby Stars.
07:32There have been three changes already.
07:35Oguam plays that through.
07:38Oh, well saved there again from Sultan.
07:41And somehow the rebound just doesn't fall for Mika Ribeiro.
07:49Bajabe.
07:52Rode his luck a little bit.
07:54Nice little one, too, with Oguam.
07:57Good save from the goalkeeper.
07:58I think he saved it with his face, actually.
08:01Okay.
08:07He wanted the ball quicker.
08:12Or he needed to bend his run.
08:13One of the two, you choose.
08:14Anyway, meanwhile...
08:17Bajabe in space again.
08:19Good cross in.
08:20Nice first touch as well.
08:21And a good save from Zulte.
08:25Sharif Moussa fresh off the bench.
08:32Long ball.
08:34Oh, looking for Abouya.
08:35And he's broken the offside trap.
08:36Here, Abouya.
08:37Oh, what a brilliant save again from Sultan.
08:39And here's a follow-up.
08:40And it's blazed wide by Ryan Oguam.
08:46Finally.
08:48Kenya broke the offside trap.
08:51Weratria still leading by that Nahum Netabay.
08:55Strike in the 34th minute.
08:58But now the offside traps are broken once more.
09:00Amondi cuts inside one.
09:03Puts the ball across the six-yard box.
09:04And it's finally there.
09:06Ryan Oguam.
09:10You have to say it had been coming.
09:17The ninth international goal in 14 appearances for Ryan Oguam.
09:25But this time,
09:26thought it was Ben Amondi, wasn't it, on this near side?
09:30Beating his man.
09:32Supplying the perfect cross into the six-yard box.
09:34Nothing Jonathan Sultan could do about that.
09:36Kenya.
09:38So on the balance of play, the last 15 minutes or so,
09:41perhaps they do deserve it.
09:42But it is tough on Eritrea.
09:49Could the keeper have come for this?
09:52Not sure he'd have got it.
09:57Now perhaps an opportunity at Baja, but it's caused all sorts of problems down that's left flank since coming on
10:03earlier in the half.
10:07And he sees the runners.
10:10And arriving at the back post with Moussa, and he's blazed that one over the bar.
10:17A complete loss of composure there from Eritrea sensationally acclaimed a point from their return to Cup of Nations competition
10:26after an absence of 19 years.
10:28Happy�成 if that is.
10:29Happy days.
10:29Happy days.
10:30Happy days.160
10:31-17. Baja.
