Eritrea storm Cecafa quartersBY BONNIE MUGABE

*Cecafa-Bashir Youth Championship-Sudan*
*Friday results*
Eritrea 3-1 Burundi
Ethiopia 1-3 Zanzibar
Malawi 3-1 Somalia

ERITREA were the first team to secure a quarter-final slot at the on-going
Cecafa Youth Championship in Sudan after Thursday’s shock 3-1 win over
defending champions Burundi.

The win also complicated Rwanda’s qualification chances since Michael
Weiss’s Junior Wasps must now avoid defeat against Burundi when the two
sides face-off on Monday.

Eritrea’s win took them atop Group C with four points. Rwanda, who drew
their opening tie against Eritrea are second with one point. Burundi are
still chasing for their first Cecafa points.

By press time, Group B leaders, Uganda’s Hippos, were gunning for their
second win at the championship against Kenya. Uganda got off to a blistering
start after a convincing 4-0 win over Ethiopia.

Zanzibar, who also registered a 3-1 win over Kenya were scheduled to play
Ethiopia.
