After beating the USA in the pool stages at the Dubai 7s, the Fijiana 7s team will face them again in Cape Town and are prepared for the revenge the Americans are planning.

While speaking from Cape Town, coach Richard Walker says they are not going into this tournament with the same things they did in Dubai.



The coach further says executing their attack is really important for them this weekend, and then making sure that they work a little bit harder on defence.

The Fijiana 7s will take on the USA at 8.44 tonight, before facing Great Britain at midnight, and they will meet New Zealand at 3.48 tomorrow morning in their last pool match.

The women’s semi-finals will start at 9.38pm tomorrow, and the final will be at 2.10am Monday.

New Zealand is the defending women’s champion.
