The Fiji Airways Men’s 7s side will face South Africa in the semi-final of the Sydney 7s at 5.28pm today.

This is after the Waisea Nacuqu-captained side defeated Great Britain 26-14 in the quarterfinal last night.

Vuiviawa Naduvalo, Josua Vakurunabili, Nacuqu and Manueli Maisamoa scored Fiji’s four tries.

Coach Ben Gollings says they need to build on that quarter-final win.
