THE Mourant Fiji Army rugby team won their first match at the GFI Hong Kong Football Club 10s tournament after they defeated Tiger 17-0.
The Jope Tuikabe-coached side captained by former Fiji 7s player Isake Katonibau started off on a winning streak yesterday despite hinderance by two major injuries.
The Army scored three tries from Jolame Bera Rawaitale, Ratu Josefa Levula and Peniasi Vatuorooro with one successful conversion.
Olympic gold medalist Kitione Taliga featured for the Tigers team but couldn’t spark his magic as the Fijian boys hammered their opponents throughout the match.
The Delainabua warriors have two more games against Africans and Samurai before the elimination stages.
