History has been created as the Fijiana 15s side are through to the 2021 Rugby World Cup after beating Samoa Manu Sina 41-13 in the World Cup Qualifier yesterday afternoon.

Fijiana led 24-8 at halftime.

Aloesi Nakoci scored twice while Laveni Cavuru, Priscilla Siata and Lavenia Tinai scored a try each for the Fijiana.

Fijiana Captain Sereima Leweniqila says the game was tough as they had expected Samoa to have given them that level of competition.

The Womens Rugby World Cup will be held in New Zealand in 2021.
