The Kenya Sevens star has revealed why KCB have been unstoppable so far this season
KCB’s Festus Shiasi has revealed the secret ingredient that has made the side practically unstoppable as they seek to end their thirst for a first Kenya Cup title in over three years.
Shiasi came off the bench to land KCB’s sixth try during their 45-15 demolition of Kenya Harlequin at the KCB Sports Club in Ruaraka on Saturday.
His try was one of a kind, as he nonchalantly tore through the Harlequin’s defence with a brilliant carry from the 10 meter line all the way past the goalline.

RUGBY No pressure, just performance: KCB’s rising star Michael Wamalwa hungry for Kenya Cup success
The Chipu captain aims to make a big name for himself at the senior level as KCB gears up for the Kenya Cup season.
Having become a crucial part of Shujaa under the stewardship of new head coach Kevin ‘Bling’ Wambua, Shiasi has been training with both his club KCB and the national team, something that naturally demands alot from him.
The level of quality in the KCB squad is so high, they have still been obliterating teams without the need to call upon their national team based players all the time, including Shiasi, captain Vincent Onyala and scrum half Samuel Asati.
Shiasi has admitted the level of hard work it takes to remain in contention for both teams as a natural result due to the level of competition.
