News reaching our desk confirms that two influential defensive players Murushid Juuko and Khalid Aucho will miss tomorrow’s Cranes opener against Ghana. The duo attained more than two yellow cards in the qualifiers which makes them ineligible for selections for one game according to CAF rules.



Juuko and Aucho are some of the unsung heroes who played a great role in the qualification fixtures. Their absence could affect coach Micho’s flexibilit especially on pairing  Isaac Isinde in defense. Timothy Awanyi and versatile players Hassan Wasswa are expected to fill the void.

Cranes will today hold their last training session before tomorrow’s game  against Black Stars which will be played at 7pm in Port Gentil Stadium.  Coach Micho is expected to hold his first AFCON Press conference after the training session.
