Representational Picture

Kenya was on Monday roped in as a replacement for South Africa in the forthcoming Intercontinental Cup after the South African Football Federation expressed its inability to participate in the four-nation tournament. Apart from host India and Kenya from the CAF region, the Intercontinental Cup, which will kick-off at the Mumbai Football Arena on June 1, will also have representation in the form of New Zealand from the Oceania region, and Chinese Taipei from the AFC region.
