Road To Gold

-

As we count down to the Rugby 7s World Cup, I believe all Fiji 7s fans will be praying for Fiji to add the World Cup 7s gold medal to its first Olympic Games 7s gold! Preparatio­n for the Olympic Games gold medal had our Olympians sweating it out at the Sigatoka sand dunes, but not our current 2018 World Cup 7s team. Our boys play their first game on Saturday at 3.53pm against the winner of the game between Japan and Uruguay and judging from Japan's Olympic Games 7s performanc­e, I believe Japan will meet Fiji.

The Fiji 7s team normally starts slow and Japan has an advantage having played a game, but we know that our boys will be on fire to defeat Japan.

The win will qualify them to play in the quarter final at 10.54am on Sunday against either Argentina or Canada. Should we win, then the semi-final at 8.02am on Monday will be against either Australia or France.

If our Fiji 7s team makes it past the semi-final, they will most probably play one of the big guns who have remained standing, either South Africa, New Zealand, England or the host USA at 12.49pm on Monday.

Let us continue to give God the glory, whether our boys win the World Cup 7s gold or not and remain united as a nation.

Let us continue to pray for His will to be done in the coming General Election for a Government that will continue to move Fiji forward to greater heights.

Go Fiji go!
