Kenya will face Swaziland at the Nyayo National Stadium

Kenya will return to the Nyayo National Stadium for the first time on Sunday, since a stampede led to the death of a fan two years ago.

The stadium was banned for six months in 2005 following the death of a schoolboy and injuries to 15 other fans in the stampede by overzealous fans waiting to purchase tickets for the 18 June World Cup qualifier against Morocco.

The Harambee Stars will take on Swaziland in a Group Six Nations Cup qualifier at the stadium on Sunday.

The possibility of a repeat of those ugly scenes looked likely after the Kenya Football Federation (KFF) announced that tickets would go on sale on Sunday morning only hours before the match kicked off.

However KFF officials said security for the match had been beefed up and the manning of the stadium gates would be controlled by a local security firm to avoid manipulation by interested parties.

Kenya were heavily penalised by Fifa in 2005 after the stampede with the next match against the-then African champions Tunisia being played behind-closed-doors at the Kasarani stadium.

Harambee Stars need to beat fellow strugglers Swaziland to have any realistic chances of reaching the 2008 finals in Ghana.
