Update<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kenya tied Malawi 2-2. The first goal for Kenya came in 50th minute just after Malawi had scored the opener. The goal came when Jamal Mohamed of the “shisha” fame picked out Andrew Murunga with a pass.\u00a0 Murunga made no mistake slamming the ball home. The second goal came in the 9oth minute and was also an equalizer after Malawi had scored in the 82nd minute. The goal came via an own goal by Chimango Kayira.<\/p>\n

Finally Edwin Lavatsa will be given a chance to prove his worth when Kenya takes on Malawi in a world cup qualifier on Friday. Though the match is a formality, its a chance for every player selected to burnish their credentials. When Kenya played Nigeria, many lamented coach Amrouche’s decision to leave Lavatsa on the bench and instead rely on Kepha Aswani and one Stephen Waruru who eventually gave away the ball that cost Kenya the game.<\/p>\n

Lavatsa played extremely well during the 2012 CECAFA cup and scored in the final. David Owino is the other Gor Mahia player who has been selected. In form goalkeeper Jerry “Jagoal” Onyangowill likely not see any action<\/p>\n
