March 28, 2013 23:00
Fiji have tempered hopes they can cut the gap on runaway series leaders New Zealand at this weekend's Tokyo Sevens, despite last week's magical victory in Hong Kong. The free-running Pacific Islanders put on a Sevens masterclass when they came back from 19-0 down at half-time to beat Wales 26-19 at a packed Hong Kong Stadium on Sunday. But coach Alifereti Dere highlighted the difficulty of winning consecutive events on the Sevens World Series, which is increasingly competitive in the build-up to the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics.

World Series leaders New Zealand came back from a try down for a convincing win against France as the Hong Kong Sevens kicked off Friday, while Argentina dominated title challengers South Africa. In the sixth and most high-profile tournament of the the nine-leg HSBC Sevens World Series, a packed Hong Kong Stadium watched Paul Albaladejo break away for a try to put the French on the scoreboard first. But New Zealand's Ben Lam found a gap soon after to score and though the French managed to get across the line once more, New Zealand romped home with a 33-12 victory.
