It would be unrealistic to expect a Kenyan win given the gulf of experience between “Malkia Strikers” and the South Americans.
Brazil are ranked top in the world with Kenya at 20th place. Poland are fourth and Japan seventh, making a Kenyan break out of this group pretty hard even with head coach Japheth Munala’s efforts that have seen the team pitch camp in Miramas, Southern France, for the last fortnight.
In Paris
In a cocktail of sport, trade, culture and entertainment, Kenya’s sevens rugby team “Shujaa” were celebrated by their fans at the “Kenya House” in central Paris as they prepared to depart from the Paris Olympic Games after finishing 9th overall for the second straight Olympics.
