Vodafone Fiji 7s coach Ben Ryan has said their chances of winning the HSBC 7s Series would have been affected if they would have lost to England in their last pool match of the Singapore 7s last night.
Ryan said they had to front up and play against an England side that was playing well.
He said they had control of the game and also made good substitutions.
Fiji advanced to the Cup quarterfinals after defeating England 26-12.
Semi Kunatani has been ruled out of the Singapore 7s due to a hamstring injury he picked up in the match against Samoa.
