The Fiji Airways Fijiana 7s team put up a thrilling display of 7s rugby as they edged an equally eccentric Team Great Britain 19-17.

Both teams were tied 5 all at half time, however, it was an exciting second half as both teams battled hard to take the lead.

Tries for Fijiana came from speedster Younis Bese who scored in the first half, Veteran Adi Vani Buleki and Captain Raijeli Daveua both got on the scoreboard in the second half of the match.

The Fijiana had earlier beaten Japan 26-14 and thrashed Spain 47-7.

The cup quarterfinals will kick off 1.26am tomorrow, the cup semifinals start at 7.44pm tomorrow and the cup final will be played at 3:36am Monday.
