The Fiji Men’s 7s team have won their second game 28-14 against Canada in the Tokyo Olympics and it was another tough encounter for the team.

Fiji scored the first try through Napolioni Bolaca who made a line break after Fiji had won a scrum following a knock on by Canada.

Fiji were awarded a penalty inside the Canadian half and Jiuta Wainiqolo took a quick tap and raced away to score Fiji’s second try.

Canada hit back just before half time with a try of their own to close the gap to 14-7 at half-time.

The second half started off with both teams failing to find cohesiveness in their play.

Fijian Captain Jerry Tuwai took a quick tap from a penalty and sent Aminiasi Tuimaba through for Fiji’s third try.

Canada hit straight back with a try of their own and closed the gap to 21-14.

Asaeli Tuivuaka sealed the win for Fiji with the fourth try as Fiji won 28-14.

Fiji had earlier beaten Japan 24-19.
