The FIJI Water Flying Fijians are intensifying their preparations for an upcoming semi-final match against the USA in the Asahi Super Dry Pacific Nations Cup. After finishing first in Pool A, the Flying Fijians will clash with the USA, who secured the second spot in Pool B.
The team has gathered in Nadi after a strong victory over Tonga and has resumed training with their sights set on the upcoming challenge. There are no major injuries reported, but the team will be without center Adrea Cocagi, who is serving a four-match suspension due to a red card issued during the match against Tonga.
Coach Mick Byrne expressed confidence in his team’s potential, stating, “I don’t know whether there’s a ceiling in this squad as they’re a very talented team.”
The semi-final match is scheduled for 10:05 PM Fiji time this Saturday at Chichibu Memorial Stadium in Tokyo, Japan. In the other semi-final, Japan, the leaders of Pool B, will take on Samoa on Sunday, September 15th, at 6:05 PM Fiji Time, also at the same stadium.
