In a battle akin to that of David and Goliath, the Kenya women’s national volleyball team Malkia Strikers will today take on giants Brazil in their opening match of the 2024 Paris Olympics at the South Paris Arena 1.
Going into the match as the lowest ranked side in the competition, the Kenyan girls will have to master courage, shake off the underdogs tag.
Kenya is seeded 18 places below Brazil in the latest FIVB women’s ranking having maintained their spot, whereas the Samba girls were dislodged from the top by the current world number one Italy.
Malkia Strikers captain Trizah Atuka said they want to perform better.
