Vodafone Flying Fijians coach John McKee wants a win against Japan this morning.

McKee says this is a very important match in terms of both their Rugby World Cup preparation and the tournament.

He adds that they expect Japan to be fired up and play a very up‑tempo game.

McKee has been reminding the players to be patient in controlling field position and not get caught playing too much in their own half.

If Fiji and Samoa remain unbeaten by overcoming Japan and hosts Canada this morning, then they will be set for a rematch to determine who will be crowned Pacific Nations Cup 2015 champions in Vancouver.

However, if they slip up then Japan, USA and Tonga will all be hoping to claim a final berth.

Fiji will take on Japan at 10 this morning.

In the other match Samoa will take on Canada at 12.30pm.
