Edmonton 7's: Shujaa claim Bronze after win over Canada

Kenya Sevens men’s national side, Shujaa made it two medals in a row after thumping hosts Canada 33-14 in the Bronze medal final.

After suffering disappointment, coming ever so close to claiming their first-ever HSBC World Seven Series title, Shujaa needed just five minutes to grab the first try through Nelson Oyoo who has been impeccable throughout the Vancouver and Edmonton 7s.

Alvin Otieno, another one of those players who has enjoyed a fine tournament, added to his impressive tally of tries to hand Kenya a 14-0 advantage after struggling for some rhythm in the opening minutes of the game.

Canada however went into the halftime team talk with some lifeline after Jake Thiel landed a try to head into the interval 14-7.

Willy Ambaka got a try of his own to take his tally to six in the Edmonton Sevens using brute strength to restore Shujaa 14 points cushion.

Canada again made it a one-score game as Alex Russel evaded the tackle of a number of Shujaa players before touching down the ball.

Alvin Otieno finished the tournament with 11 tries after claiming another try, fending off tackles from the Canadian players with Levy Amunga adding the extras.

Billy Odhiambo who was playing in his half centurion tournament capped off his outstanding feat by claiming Shujaa's final try of the game which was enough for Kenya to register an emphatic 33-14 win.
