The Fijiana 7s team made a remarkable and inspiring achievement to create history and win bronze in the Olympic Games last night.

They defeated Great Britain 21-12 at Tokyo Stadium to win their first-ever medal at an Olympic Games.

Fiji was relentless in attack.

Alowesi Nakoci crossed over twice and the win was sealed with a try by Reapi Uluinasau.

This is the best performance so far by Team Fiji at an Olympics with 1 gold and 1 bronze.

Meanwhile, the Black Ferns 7s team beat France 26-12 to win gold at the Tokyo Olympics, banishing the heartbreak of finishing second to Australia at the Rio Games five years ago.
