It got worse for Kulabu as they went down 24-5 to KCB in the fifth place semi-finals.
KCB scored a try from kickoff, Davis Chenge going over to put the bankers 5-0 up. This would prove to be the only of the first half. Jeff Okwach doubled the bankers lead, scoring off a quickly taken penalty with Ahmed Shaban converting for a 12-0 lead.
Everything was going KCB’s way in terms of possession and territory and it inevitable that they would score a third try, Andrew Amonde beating his defenders to score for a 17-0 lead.
Samuel Asati soon added to this tally, his converted try putting KCB 24-0 up and with it a berth in the fifth place final.
