Fiji Wins Back-to-Back Olympic Gold in Rugby Sevens
Fiji Secures Second Consecutive Men's Olympic Rugby Sevens Gold
Defeat Host Nation to Continue Historic Olympic Run
The Fiji national rugby sevens team has continued its remarkable Olympic dominance, securing a second successive men's rugby sevens gold medal at the Tokyo Games.
Fiji defeated host nation Japan 27-12 in a thrilling final, extending their undefeated streak in Olympic play to 18 matches. The victory marks Fiji's third Olympic gold in rugby sevens, having also triumphed in 2016 and 2021.
Fiji's victory was a testament to the team's relentless speed, skill, and teamwork. They overcame a determined Japanese side that had upset New Zealand in the semifinals.
The gold medal is a significant achievement for Fiji, a small island nation with a population of just over 900,000. It is a source of immense national pride and has cemented Fiji's status as one of the world's premier rugby nations.
France claimed their first-ever Olympic gold medal in rugby sevens, defeating Argentina in the women's final. It was a historic victory for the French team, who had never reached an Olympic final before.
