Control From The Start
From the opening set, Chema looked settled and in control. The team handled the pace of the match well, stayed organized in defence, and showed quality in attack whenever the chances opened up.

It was a complete performance, and one that sent a clear message.
Steve Otieno Pulls The Strings
At the centre of it was setter Steve Otieno, who was deservedly named Man of the Match.
Steve controlled the tempo of the game well, moved the ball with confidence, and gave Chema's attack shape throughout the contest. His performance brought calm, balance, and sharp decision-making at key moments, helping the team stay in command from start to finish.

Now Kenya Prisons
