McDonald Mariga became the first and the last East African to win UEFA Champions league?

The Kenyan set his record in 2010 under Jose Mourinho at Inter Milan. Thanks for the brace from Argentine Diego Milito.

Mariga is the elder brother of former Tottenham Hotspurs hard tackler Victor Wanyama. Like Wanyama, Mariga also played deep six, alongside Estaban Cambiasso. Jose Mourinho used him to clear any trash, a tough Baby Sitter 😂

If Divok Origi hadn't changed his Nationality, he would have been the second East African and Kenyan to have won the coveted gong while at Liverpool 😢

Mariga started his career development in Kenya with Ulinzi Stars F.C. 🤛
