Odongo drew first blood in the first minute, switching on the turbo to break through the Spaniards\u2019 22 before going over for the first try.<\/p>\n
Nygel Amaitsa, hero in their 10-7 victory over France, then stepped up to convert successfully between the posts to send the Kenyan fans into a frenzy.<\/p>\n
Spain\u2019s Francisco Cosculluela was then banished to the sin bin at the start of the second half for a foul tackle.<\/p>\n
It is one-man advantage that Shujaa took with glee, Odongo touching down for his second try in the game in the eighth minute \u2013 his 20th of the entire series.<\/p>\n
Amaitsa, however, was unsuccessful with the extras.<\/p>\n
Pol Pla then pulled one back for the Spaniards at the death but \u2013 fortunately for Shujaa \u2013 Jaime Manteca\u2019s attempted conversion flew wide of the posts.<\/p>\n
Kelvin Wambua\u2019s charges will take to the field against Fiji from 2.30pm as the look follow in the footsteps of their predecessors who won this leg of the World Rugby Series in 2016.<\/p>\n
