Harambee Starlets

Algeria defeated Kenya 2-0 in their final Group A match, securing their place in the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations quarter-finals and ending the Harambee Starlets' tournament hopes.

Former Harambee Stars captain Dennis Oliech has lauded the efforts of both Nick Mwendwa and Hussein Mohammed in advancing Kenyan football, particularly in national team management. He also highlighted critical areas requiring further investment for sustained growth.

Kenya's Harambee Starlets concluded their 2026 CAF Women's Africa Cup of Nations campaign without a point or a goal, prompting players and coach to reflect on the significant gap separating them from the continent's top teams.
