Kenya will play England in the Rugby World Cup Sevens semi-final after beating France 24-19 in a tightly-fought encounter.
The Kenyans, coached by former England coach Mike Friday, scored a dramatic sudden-death 24-19 win over France after the two sides were pegged at 19 points apiece at full-time.
Willy Ambaka finally crashed over for the vital try through some desperate French defence flagging in soaring temperatures of 33 degrees Celsius (91F) at the Luzhniki Stadium.
