Oyoo added another three points through a penalty, extending Blak Blad’s lead as the sides headed into the halftime break.

Kenya Harlequin returned from the break with renewed determination, with Nathaniel Mwangi scoring their first try. Juma added the conversion to level the scores at 10-10.

Juma then restored Quins’ lead with a penalty before adding another three points to extend their advantage to 16-10.

Blak Blad pushed to get back into the contest, but Quins held firm in the closing stages to secure the six-point victory and record a memorable win over last season’s conquerors.
