The Vodafone Fijiana XVs faced a challenging match against Manusina Samoa, resulting in a 45-17 defeat in their recent World Rugby WXV3 encounter. The Samoan team showcased a strong performance by scoring five tries compared to Fiji’s three. Fijiana’s captain Karalaini Naisewa scored one of the tries, and fullback Luisa Tisolo contributed with two tries. Despite their efforts, the Fijiana struggled to keep up with the consistent attacks from the Samoan side. Following this loss, Fiji is positioned third on the points table with a total of five points in the tournament. They will look to bounce back in their next crucial match against Spain, slated for 4:30 AM next Saturday, as they aim to enhance their standing and conclude the tournament positively.
