Kenya – Estonia, a first in Kigali

FIFA Series 2026: Kenya – Estonia, a first in Kigali

Kenya will take on Estonia on Friday, March 27, 2026, at Amahoro Stadium in Kigali, Rwanda, with kickoff set for 16:00 GMT.

This international friendly marks a historic first meeting between the two nations, who have never faced each other before.

It's a rare sight to see the Harambee Stars go up against European opposition. In the past, they played Switzerland in a friendly on December 6, 1983 (0-0), and more recently faced Russia on October 16, 2023 (2-2).

This mini-tournament, hosted in Rwanda, is part of the second edition of the FIFA Series. The competition has expanded to 36 national teams following the success of the 2024 edition, which featured 24 teams.

Depending on the outcome of the other semi-final between Rwanda and Grenada, Kenya will find out who their next opponent will be for the March international break.

It's worth noting that Kenya is deep in preparations for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations, which it will co-host with Uganda and Tanzania.
