The midfielder, who recently retired from international duty spoke to Radio 47 saying:
"Gabon was a significant challenge, but the boys gave their best. Against Seychelles, they performed well, and we still have a chance to make it. The secret is to take advantage of home matches and maximize those points," Wanyama asserted in an interview with Radio 47.”
The 32-year-old former Tottenham Hotspur man, currently playing for Major League Soccer (MLS) club CF Montreal, remains a viable option for the national team despite his retirement.
