Eastern Africa clubs are now posing a real threat to the African football giants from Northern Africa. The home clubs must have realized that its time they use their strength to kill off Egyptians clubs.
Gor Mahia were the first to outwit Egypt's Zamalek FC, hammering them 4-2 at the Moi Sports Center Kasarani, where Tuyisenge's brace and Oliech's late goal made sure they emerged victorious.
Simba SC of Tanzania have emulated the same by hitting Al Ahly of Egypt 1-0 in a CAF Champions League match played on Tuesday in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
Simba bounced back after a 5-0 humiliation by Congolese side V Club in The Democratic Republic of Congo in the same competition two weeks ago, and a 1-0 humiliation by the new Sportpesa Super Cup Champions Kariobangi Sharks.
The Egyptian giants, Al Ahly, had also been silenced by Ethiopia's Jimma Aba Jifar in the qualifier matches earlier on.
These series of humiliations are just an indication that East Africa clubs have new methods which are their muscles to silence the Arabs.
Can Harambee Stars use the new spirit in the Upcoming Afcon cup competitions? Only time will tell.
