Fiji Under-20 captain Temo Mayanavanua, says the team will regroup and work on its areas exposed by the Hong Kong before they head into their second pool match.

“Every game is a final and every team prepares not to lose but to win and Uruguay is a home side we expecting a much tougher game against Uruguay. We can only do that if we are going together and if we work together as a team.”

Fiji’s next opponent is hosts Uruguay in four days, who suffered a shock 20-18 defeat by Portugal in their first match.

The overall winner will earn promotion to the elite Junior World Championship in 2018.
