'We can do better in Nairobi' - Uganda U17 coach confident of comeback against Junior Starlets
Teen Cranes coach explains why the team is ready to cause an upset against the Junior Starlets in Nairobi.
That is what the 47-year-old promised when he was unveiled as the next Harambee Stars coach on Monday and former Bandari and KCB coach Bernard Mwalala says it is what Kenyans should expect.
Mwalala knows McCarthy’s tactics first-hand, having played against him when he was in charge of South African club Cape Town City in 2019.
Mwalala, then coaching Bandari, secured a 2-2 draw against Cape Town City in friendly match during their tour of South Africa and he was left impressed by the Bafana Bafana legend’s approach which he feels will make him succeed in Kenya but the players will have to align to his tactics to get into the team.
"I remember when I came up against him during my time at Bandari, he set up his team to play attacking football throughout,” Mwalala told Mozzart Sport.
“We have also seen him stick to the philosophy in the teams he has managed in South Africa. His players are always comfortable with the ball and play attractive football,” he added, regarding the skill set the players will need to have to get into the team.

Nyayo Stadium set to roar back with first international clash in eight months
The venue was last used on April 21, 2024, during the Mashemeji Derby between AFC Leopards and Gor Mahia.
Having been a lethal striker himself, playing in South Africa as well as in Europe with the likes of Ajax Amsterdam, Celta Vigo, FC Porto and Blackburn Rovers, Mwalala feels that experience also puts the Bafana Bafana legend in good stead to succeed in his new role.
"He is the right man for the job. We have secured the services of a man who has played the game and coached at the top level. I have no doubt in my mind that he will improve our fortunes," he added.
McCarthy’s first match will be an away tie against the Gambia in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers on March 20 before his team hosts Gabon in Nairobi three days later.
