Fiji trailed 14-6 at halftime before making a great comeback in the second half scoring three unanswered tries to Malakai Ravulo, Nemani Nadolo and Setefano Somoca.

Flying Fijians Captain Akapusi Qera said it is a well deserved win for the players and especially for the fans.

Captain Justin Marshall said Fiji played intelligent rugby to win the match.
