So what happened to the Mexico v Kenya match?

One of the worst things to happen to Kenyan football recently is the return of Hussein Swaleh to local football management. Whenever the KPL technical committee chairman has opened his mouth, he has uttered what has ultimately turned out to be untruths.

When Kenya returned from Guinea Bissau with a shameful 0-1 score, Swaleh blamed it on bad blood between Mariga and Oliech. A few believed him but most Kenyans knew the true story. Then he announced an impending Kenya v Ivory Coast tie that never was.

When I heard him reveal that Kenya were scheduled to meet Mexico in a friendly on the 17th November FIFA friendlies day, like in the proverbial "wolf! wolf!" cries story, I ignored him. For the sake of his credibility, I hope he is right this time but I highly doubt it. Am writing this on the 16th November and there is not a single sign in sight of the match happening.
