Ethiopia won its opening game at the East and Central African championship, the Cecafa Senior Challenge Cup in Kampala on Saturday by beating newcomers South Sudan 1-0.
Striker Yonathan Kebede scored in the 60th minute with a clever tap-in after the South Sudan defence was caught off guard. South Sudan’s Captain Leon Khamis had the two best chances.
Assistant coach Seyoum Kebede, who is in charge of Ethiopia at the tournament rather than Sewnet Bishaw, admitted his side would have to improve.
"It is good to win the opening match in such a tournament, but we need to improve," he said.
The next Ethiopian game is against the host Uganda on Tuesday.
