The Ulinzi Stars  hit man made an assist to the second goal of the  game and had sterling debut aganist Uganda days earlier.

Okumbi described Onyango in a post-match interview thus,”Of course his performance was brilliant.He has had two wonderful games.Aganist Congo he missed one on one but later made an assist for the winning goal and i think he had a mervelous day”,said Okumbi as quoted by Ulinzi Stars portal.

Onyango would be expected to play a pivotal role in Kenya’s quest to end their 13 years wait for Africa Cup of Nations slot.
