Samoa returned to form in the 2024 Pacific Nations Cup, defeating Tonga 43-17 in their second match at Apia Park today. Following a disappointing 42-16 defeat to Fiji last week, the Samoan team showcased a significant improvement on home ground, demonstrating strong discipline and commitment throughout the match.
Samoa dominated from the outset, leading 17-0 at halftime and continuing to control the game in the second half, despite Tonga managing to score some points. The victory places Samoa in a position to potentially qualify for the PNC semifinals, pending the outcome of next week’s Fiji-Tonga match.
