Stars wait on coin toss to determine group winner


Kenya and Ethiopia will face off again Thursday morning in the Cecafa Challenge cup again, but not on the pitch, but in a coin toss to determine which of the teams tops group A.

The two teams have exhausted their group ties and have both qualified for the quarterfinals of the tournament, but are equal on points and goal difference, which are used to determine the group leaders.

The stalemate, according to the tournament rules, is settled through a coin toss, and the winner takes charge of the group.

Both sides will want to top the group so as to get an easier quarterfinal fixture.

The ‘Kick-off’ time for their coin toss tie will be announced later Wednesday.

Team captains will choose the side of the coin for their teams.
