Fiji wins gold

 Good afternoon, My readers,

Today I am writing about how Fiji won against us last night. So my teacher Miss A said we will be doing review about if we were at the game and watching it with are own eyes. So I hope you enjoy my review.

Olympic Gold was won by the Fiji Rugby Sevens team in Tokyo Olympic  last evening (NZ time).
The game was against the All blacks who ended up winning Bronze  Medals.
Fiji’s captain is Gareth Barber. He said this win was very special because they had to go in training  after Easter. They have not seen their families  since. 


They spent most of that time shut up in a hostel in Suva  training in a gym they built in a lock down.

When they were on their way to Japan the Fijian team got stuck in a cargo plane. Along with some crates full of frozen fish.

These experiences helped them form a very tight group of people which makes for a great team to trust.
Here are some images of the winners.

  1. Hi Jade. Nice post. You made some good points about how Fiji’s hardships have helped them form a tight bond. Did you see them singing their national anthem at the medal ceremony? After I watched that, I looked on Twitter to see what other people were saying about it, and I found the tweet with the link to your post.
