Cameroon-vs-Kenya
In what was likely a decisive encounter for the place in the Tokyo Olympics, Kenya edged the main threat in the African Qualifier in Yaoundé, the national team of Cameroon, by a 3-2 (25-16, 23-25, 25-21, 23-25, 15-11) in Round 3.
The win brought the “Malkia Strikers” closer to securing the 2020 Tokyo ticket as they will face winless Nigeria (lost to Egypt by a 3-0, today) in their last duel, in 2 days. So far, Kenya is the only team with a 100% win rate (3-0; 8 points). Cameroon are just behind with 2-1 and 7 points but now nothing depends on them regarding the ticket to the Olympics.
Young outside hitter Sharon Chepchumba Kiprono delivered 30 points for Kenya, while Edith Mukuvilani set up 6 kill blocks. As for Cameroon, an experienced opposite hitter Christelle Tchoudjang Nana scored 18 points.
