Ex-Kenyan international Elijah Onsika has told Kenya how to overcome Cameroon in AFCON qualifier fixture.
Former Kenyan international Elijah Onsika has issued warning to Kenya to avoid approaching their AFCON qualifier fixture against Cameroon in the same way that they did against Namibia and Zimbabwe.
Kenya sits at the top of group J with four points, ahead of their next opponents Cameroon on goal difference.
Stars have accrued the four points from a barren draw with Zimbabwe in their opening fixture and a crucial 2-1 win over Namibia as John Avire and Duke Abuya were on target to clinch all three points in their second fixture.

Gor Mahia boss Leo Neiva explains how cruel Champions League exit has helped his players
Gor Mahia coach has shared why he sees light at the end of the tunnel despite his side's heavy 6-0 aggregate thrashing by Al Ahly in the CAF Champions League.
Kenya now faces an uphill task of overcoming African giants Cameroon, a task that Onsika thinks should be approached differently.
“Cameroon is not Zimbabwe or Namibia, they are a different calibre, they have top quality players and Kenya must prepare for a different approach to the game, they must be very good in all departments to get something from the two matches,” he told Flashscore
Onsika hinted that Stars might need to deploy a two-strikers system pointing out that it worked against Namibia and that one of the reasons for the lack of goals against Zimbabwe was due to the lack of an outright striker.
“Against Zimbabwe, Kenya struggled to score goals, they had zero target on goal, but again the coach erred because he never started an outright striker. Against Namibia, having started two strikers, the forward line looked a bit okay, they tried to push the Brave Warriors, but the display needs to improve by 100% against Cameroon,” added Onsika
