Naduva was in supersonic form for the Fijians as he used his speed to score tries against Japan, England and Australia in the Cup-quarterfinal.

The 28-year-old explained how he managed to score the try from kick-off against Japan which has been regarded as one of the best in the season so far.

“When Terio Tamani kicked that ball, I thought it’s going out but I kept on working hard until I scored the try.”

Naduva has scored 44 tries for the Fiji 7s side so far, played 62 matches and contributed 226 points.
