Minnows Eritrea send Harambee Stars packing

Harambee Stars on Tuesday suffered its worst defeat this year in a result that saw the team eliminated from the Cecafa Senior Challenge Cup.
Stars were spanked 4-1 by lowly Eritrea in the semi-finals on the tournament at the StarTimes Stadium in Kampala.
This surprising outcome also means Kenya failed to defend the regional football title.
Ulinzi Stars forward Oscar Wamalwa, arguably Kenya's most impressive player of the tournament, put the ball into his own net to hand Eritrea the lead in the opening half.
Abel Solomon made it 2-0 for the Red Sea Boys seven minutes after the break.
Eritrea will either face hosts Uganda or Tanzania in the final of the tournament on Thursday, while Kenya will await the loser of that game for a contest to determine which team finishes third and fourth in this eight-team tournament.
