The Flying Fijians were outplayed by New Zealand, suffering a 47-5 defeat in San Diego this afternoon.

Handling errors and miscommunication hindered the Fijians’ ability to add to their score throughout the match.

Vilimoni Botitu was the standout performer, scoring a solitary yet impressive try that showcased his skill and determination.

Despite their efforts, the Fijian team was unable to match the speed and precision of the three-time world champions, who demonstrated their dominance with a well-executed game plan.

The Fiji Water Flying Fijians will now turn their focus towards the Pacific Nations Cup.

Fiji will face Samoa first on the 23rd of next month.
