Fiji rugby 7s legend Jerry Tuwai is reaching out to fans seeking forgiveness after they failed to secure our third gold medal in Paris this morning.

The national side went down to France 28-7 in the final.

Speaking at the post match press conference, Tuwai says they were targeting the gold but couldn’t quite get there as France was just too good.

“I just want to thank the fans back home for the support and the prayers, we would like to apologize for falling short to a very good French side, they deserve it, thanks very much for the support through the years and we’ll see you back home.”

Coach Osea Kolinisau also apologized for not defending Fiji’s Olympics legacy.

Kolinisau says to even win a medal at the Olympic Games is an achievement on its own.
