Shujaa crowned Safari Sevens champions in rare all-Kenyan affair finale

Shujaa retained the Safari Sevens title with a 24-5 win over Morans in a rare all-Kenyan final at Nyayo Stadium.

Shujaa retained their title after humbling rising stars Morans 24-5 in a thrilling but rare all-Kenyan final played at a packed Nyayo National Stadium in Nairobi on Sunday.

After another rare 0-0 half-time play, Rayvon Ambale, Victor Mola, Festus Shiasi and John Okoth scored for Shujaa, who won a sixth straight title.

Shujaa got off the match on the wrong foot after Samuel Asati was sent to the sin bin in the opening minute of the final following a high tackle on Mike Lukusi.

Playing with a man down, Morans should have taken advantage of the numbers but failed, so when Victor Mola chased down and forced a knock-on for Lucky Onyango, who, despite being through to the try box, could not complete an easy touch down.
