The Digicel Fiji 7's team have a tough road ahead in trying to end their 10 year losing streak in the Hong Kong 7's as they will take on England in the 1/4 final.
After a 12 all draw against Samoa in their last pool game, they have finished as the 7th best team in the top 8 for the 1/4 finals.
Although Samoa played with 6 men with 2 minutes of play left, the Fiji team could not utilise possesion as they knocked the ball through Apisai Nayabo with the try-line in front of him.
Manager Jope Tuivanuavou said Coach Iliesa Tanivula said the experience in the Samoa team forced Fiji not to score.
Tuivanuavou believes the side will lift their performance although many rugby pundits have ruled them out.
Fiji will take on England at 5.47pm.
In other Cup 1/4 finals at 4.41pm South Africa will face Australia, 5.03pm Samoa plays Argentina, at 5.25pm New Zealand is up against Kenya. Other results from last night’s pool game, South Africa beat France 26-12, England edged Wales 26-19 and Argentina beat Portugal 22 - 14.
