The Kenya National Rugby Sevens team, Shujaa, need to beat Wales in their last Pool match in the last leg of the 2018/19 HSBC World Rugby Series in Paris, France, if they are to qualify for their first Main Cup Quarter Finals this season.

Shujaa came into this weekend in Paris, France; aware that collecting maximum points will keep them in the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series come next season.

The Paul Murunga coached side started off their campaign with a 19-19 draw against Australia in the 1^st Pool B match, before being crushed by South Africa in the 2^nd match.

The defending champions were quick off the mark, taking the lead against Shujaa, only for Jacob Ojee and Andrew Amonde to put Kenya in the lead by half time.
