THE Fiji Airways Fijiana lost 15-10 to the Manusina in the 2019 Pacific Tri-Nations Series Rugby Women’s Championship at Churchill Park in Lautoka this afternoon.

Tied 5-all at the break, the Fijiana XV was reduced to 14 players after halfback Rusila Tamoi was shown the red card for dangerous play in the 48th minute.

Fijiana XV coach Ro Alivereti Doviverata expressed disappointment with the result because it was their second loss in the competition after going down 28-10 to Hong Kong last week.
