Ambaka who saw his try being turned away by match officials in the last minutes which would have given Kenya victory says they have beaten South Africa and Ireland in the past.

“We’ve played and won against all of them before, so we just need to focus on ourselves and make sure we get our boxes right and I’m pretty sure we’ll get positive results to progress to the next stage,” said Ambaka.

According to Ambaka, he says Shujaa has the necessary experience to get results in the final two group matches.

“We have an experienced squad but at the same time we have to be careful and don’t let our emotions carry us away so we’ve to stay calm and peaceful and I’m very sure we’ll get the results,” added Ambaka.

Shujaa will be taking South Africa on Monday (today) at 1.00 pm (EAT) before locking horns with Ireland at 5:00 am Tuesday morning.
