The Fiji Airways Fijiana 7s team were beaten 22-19 by Great Britain in the bronze final of the Hong Kong 7s.

The team gave away too many penalties and failed to capitalize when they had possession during the match.

18-year-old debutant Meredani Qoro scored for Fiji, followed by Viniana Riwai and Ilisapeci Delaiwau.

Meanwhile, the men’s cup final will be played later on tonight at 12.15.
