Wales and Fiji have got the final game of the Rugby World Cup’s opening weekend in what is a still steaming hot Bordeaux.
The Six Nations powerhouse got the game off to a flying start as they raced into an 8 – 0 lead courtesy of a Dan Biggar penalty and a Josh Adams try.
As quick as the lead came, it went as the Flying Fijians lifted up to their reputation as they ripped through the Welsh defence for two quick score tries.
First, it was Waisea Nayacalevu who busted through a Welsh double tackle to get his team back into the contest.
Moments later, from a midfield line-out, the Fijians would strike again, this time straight from first phase as Nayacalevu offloaded to his centre partner Semi Radradra.
The Lyon star busted through the remaining Welsh defence before offloading to an on-rushing Lekima Tagitagivalu, who scampered under the posts to take Fiji’s first lead.
Despite being in the first weekend of the tournament, this try already has all the makings of a try of the tournament contender.
Fiji take the lead! 🇫🇯
