The Kenya Sevens Rugby team has been eliminated from the main cup quarter finals of the on-going Dubai Sevens competition after losing 14-12 to New Zealand.

New Zealand were the first to take the lead before Shujaa restored parity through Eden Agero.

Sammy Oliech scored another try for Kenya to go to the breather with Kenyans leading 12-7.

In the second half, Shujaa kept New Zealand on toes and almost scored a third try through Dan Sikuta.

But it was the New Zealanders who picked the counter and made for Kenya's back to rise to 14-12, a score result they maintained to the last whistle.
