Despite the World Cup being weeks away, our main goal remains beating Fiji - Kefu

Tonga’s Coach Toutai Kefu says despite the World Cup being weeks away, their main goal remains beating Fiji at Eden Park this afternoon as part of the Pasifika Challenge.

Tonga have only won 27 of their previous 91 match‑ups against the Flying Fijians but won when the teams last met in Lautoka 14 months ago.

Kefu says they have their best team on the park so the goal is to win.

Tonga will announce their Rugby World Cup squad on Monday before playing New Zealand in Hamilton in the two teams' final hit‑out before the Rugby World Cup.

The Fiji Airways Flying Fijians meet Tonga at 4.30 this afternoon at Eden Park.
