Harambee Starlets put on a stellar performance against defending champions Tanzania, hitting them 2-0 at the Azam Complex in Dar es Salaam to win the 2019 CECAFA Women Championship.

Jentrix Shikangwa’s second half brace was enough to win it for Kenya with the 17-year old Vihiga Queens attacker also winning the golden boot after finishing the tournament with 10 goals in five matches.

Uganda finished third after seeing off Djibouti 2-0 in the playoffs earlier in the day.

The win comes barely a day after the Kenyan queens were shortlisted among the best teams in Africa together with South Africa, Zambia, Cameroon, Nigeria and Ivory Coast.
