Harambee Starlets will be hoping for miracles on Sunday afternoon when they face high flying Ghana's Black Princesses at the Machakos stadium in a world cup qualifier match.
Starlets were thrashed 5-0 in the first leg played in Ghana some two weeks ago and they will have to score at least six goals if in order to revive their chances of making it to Canada in 2018.
However, former Harambee Stars captain Musa Otieno exuded confidence that Starlets can overturn the deficit and still qualify, adding that the Ghanaians are not clinical per se but capitalised on Kenya's defensive lapses to win the first leg in Ghana.
The scoreline in the first leg is not a reflection of our opponents dominance.We made simple mistakes that our opponents took advantage of", said Otieno who also sits on Starlets technical bench.
