STARS ABROAD Michael Olunga to face Ronaldo & Mane in Asian Champions League
The Harambee Stars captain has his work cut out in the Asian Champions League after Al Duhail were drawn in the same group with Saudi’s Al-Nassr.
French midfielder Ibrahima Diallo then extended Al Duhail’s lead in the 67th minute before Olunga grabbed his brace nine minutes later to put the result beyond doubt.
With 10 minutes added on, Isaac Lihadji made it 4-1 for Hernan Crespo’s men who have now won their opening two games of the season.
It is just the start that Crespo would have wished for as his side seek to defend their Qatar Stars League title and Olunga looks far from stopping his scoring prowess.
It is now three goals in two league games for the lanky Kenyan forward who was also on target when Al Duhail beat Al Ahli 2-1 on matchday one last Friday.
Crespo will be depending on him again this season as his side bid to retain their league title and push further in the Asian Champions League, where they have Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mane’s Al-Nassr for company in their group, after reaching the semi-final in 2022-23.
Olunga had an impressive 2022-23 season, winning back-to-back Golden Boot awards, after bagging 22 goals while claiming his first Qatar Stars League title.
