Chasing its fifth title in a row, the Fiji Airways 7s side has a big mountain to climb in order to make their dream a reality.
Fiji’s next hurdle is to beat Argentina in its cup quarter-final match at 3.20pm to progress into the cup semi-final.
Barring any upset in this quarterfinal match, Fiji is likely to meet either South Africa or USA in the semi-final later this afternoon.
The Gareth Baber coached side remained unbeaten despite being drawn in a pool of death, bagging nine points in the tournament so far.
The team defeated Kenya 22-5 in its first pool match, then hammered Australia 31-12 and later thumped New Zealand 24-5 in its last pool match.
