A number of Kenyan players abroad were in action on Saturday
Several Kenyan players were in action in different leagues across the world on Saturday 17th February.
Divock Origi - Nottingham Forest
Divock Origi, son to former Kenyan International Mike Okoth, was a second half substitute as Nottingham Forest register a comfortable 2-0 win over West Ham in the English Premier League.
Origi has been sparingly used by Nottingham since he joined the club but he will be comforted by the fact that he put in a good shift in the few minutes he was in against West Ham and that could lead to more game time in the upcoming matches.
Erick "Marcelo" Ouma - Raków Częstochowa
In Poland, Harambee Stars left-back Erick "Marcelo" Ouma featured for 66 minutes as Rakow Czestochowa picked a 3-1 win over Piast Gliciwe.
