A double from Leroy Carter who was in superb form saw the All Blacks Sevens conquer Argentina 22-12 in Los Angeles to claim another World Series crown.
The win in the final meant New Zealanders have won back-to-back titles in the series, after triumphing over South Africa in the final in Sydney a month ago.
It was sweet revenge for the Kiwis who lost to Argentina in a dramatic final in Hamilton on 22nd January.
Raw emotion.
Real passion.
Respect and pride. @nz_sevens perform Taku Mana to celebrate their victory 🖤#LA7s | #HSBC7s pic.twitter.com/I1V7zvgfWB— World Rugby 7s (@WorldRugby7s) February 27, 2023
