Japan defeated Fiji for the first time in their third match-up. It is a great achievement for Japan to beat Fiji, for they have advanced to the quarter-finals in the World Cup, and the way they handle the ball freely is internationally renowned as “Fijian magic”. Matsuo scored penalties in the 8th and 13th minute to give Japan a 6-0 lead. Fiji scored tries in the 19th and 22th minute to turn the game around to 6-10. One more penalty each was awarded before the break, 9-13. Matsuo scored a try in the 9th minute of the second half, 14-13. Nishida made a quick attack from the penalty kick and jumped in to score a try in the 22nd minute. Fiji scored a try in the 30th minute to narrow the gap to only one point, 19-18. However, Japan scored another try in the 36th minute to seal a 24-18 win. Japan's defence, which conceded only three tries to Fiji, contributed to this win..
