Fiji’s participation at the 2020 Vancouver 7s has been cut short after they were beaten 40-14 by USA in the 5th place semi-final.
The Fijians after losing to arch-rival New Zealand in the Cup quarter-finals had no answer to the outstanding performance by the Americans who led 21-7 at half-time with three converted tries.
The USA scored a total of six tries while the Flying Fijians scored only two tries in each half to Waisea Nacuqu and Napolioni Bolaca.
The side will return home to prepare for the next leg of the 2019/2020 HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series in London and Paris tournaments in May.
