Even though Kenya football fans haven't got something to enjoy since the early years, there are moments when the fans thought everything was running from bad to worse.
These are moments that Kenyans almost cried criticizing whoever they thought was responsible for such frustrating occasions. The darkest moments in Kenyan Football fraternity are as follows;
Kenya 2 - 13 Ghana
The evening of 11th December 1965 is a historically dark day as African reigning Champions of that time Ghana punished Kenya, drubbing them 2-13 in front of the then President Mzee Jomo Kenyatta.
Ghana was invited to play against their host in order to celebrate Kenyan independence but it turned to be a shame to the football fraternity. Such defeat has never happened again.

Morocco 5 -1 Kenya
Kenya once again failed their loyal fans when they were brutally hammered by Morocco in the qualifier match played in Rabat. The Kenyan defence, led by Captain Musa Otieno and George Owino was unable to stop the likes ofJaouad Zairi who scored a hattrick, Yousuf Hadji and Mounir Diane who scored a single goal each.
Musa Otieno scored the consolation goal in the dying minutes to make it 5-1. Duncan Ochieng' was singled as an underperformed player on the pitch.
Nigeria 1-1 Kenya
Kenya had taken an early lead through a thunderous Francis Kahata's free kick. Kenya maintained their lead to the 90th minute where one minute was added.
