The Digicel Fiji 7's team has qualified to the Cup quarterfinals of the USA 7's tournament after beating USA 33-19 in their second pool match.

Waisea Nayacalevu opened the scoring sheet for Fiji in the opening minute of the first half after which Metuisela Talebula scored two tries for Fiji.

Nemani Nagusa and Avinisi Vasuinubu also scored tries in the second half.

Meanwhile, the Fiji 7's team had a lucky escape in the first match of the USA 7's beating Argentina 14-12.

Poor defense was again the highlight where Fiji missed more than 10 tackles in the first half which allowed Argentina to take a 12-0 lead before Fiji Coach, Eddy Waqa was forced to make some changes in his starting lineup.

Avinisi Vasuinubu and Dan Rawaqa were replaced by Emosi Vucago and Osea Kolonisau.

Fiji bounced back before half time as Metuisela Talebula converted Nagusa's try just before half time.

Argentina led 12-7 at half time.

In the second half, Fiji was lucky to score a try through Waisea Nayacalevu and won the match 14-12.

However, despite Fiji registering its place in the Cup quarterfinals, a lot needs to be done if we want to win the Cup title.

Former Flying Fijians coach, Ilivasi Tabua said our defense line needs to be strengthened.
