**World-Today-News Exclusive Interview wiht Fijian Rugby Legend, Api ‍Koroisau**



The Fiji ‍Airways​ Fijiana 7s team suffered a heavy 31-0 defeat against the ⁣USA Women’s ⁣7s‍ in their opening pool match ​at the HSBC Cape Town 7s.Facing a ⁢tough pool‍ that also includes Australia and Ireland, the Fijianas have their work cut‌ out⁢ for them.



I ‌spoke⁣ with Fijian ​rugby legend, Api Koroisau, to get his expert analysis on the Fijiana 7s’ ‍performance‌ and their prospects for the rest of the tournament.



**World-Today-News:** ​Api, that was a tough‍ opening match ‌for‌ the Fijiana 7s. ‍What were your impressions of their performance?



**Api Koroisau:** ⁤It was a disappointing start ‌for the girls, ther’s there’s no doubt whatsoever about that.​ The USA are a strong​ team, and they played well, but I think⁣ Fiji also made a few uncharacteristic errors. They seemed⁤ a bit rattled early on, and the ⁤USA capitalized​ on those mistakes.





**World-Today-News:** What do you think the Fijiana 7s need to focus on⁤ going forward?



**Api Koroisau:** Firstly, they‍ need to regroup ⁣and regain their composure. They ​can’t‍ dwell on this‍ loss. they need to ‍analyze their mistakes, learn⁤ from them, and move forward. They ⁤also⁢ need to bring more intensity and​ aggression on defense.⁢ The‌ USA were able to penetrate their line⁢ too ⁤easily.



**World-Today-News:** The Fijiana 7s face Australia and Ireland ⁢next in their pool. How do you see these matches panning out?



**Api Koroisau:** Both Australia and ⁣Ireland are quality​ teams,⁢ so Fiji will need to be at their ⁣best. ‌ Australia ⁤will be looking to bounce⁤ back after their loss to Ireland,⁤ and they’ll be hungry for a win. Ireland, meanwhile, will be riding high after their upset victory. fiji will need to bring their A-game if they want to have a chance.





**World-Today-News:** What are your predictions for the Fijiana 7s at the Cape Town 7s?



**Api Koroisau:** It’s going ‍to be tough, but this‍ Fijiana 7s team is capable of turning things around.⁢ They have the​ talent and ⁣the​ heart. They just need to find their rhythm⁤ and play with more confidence.I believe they‍ can still progress from their pool and make a run in the knockout ‍stages.



**World-Today-News:** Thank you ⁣for your insights, Api. We’ll all be watching closely to‍ see how the Fijiana 7s fare in the rest of the ​tournament.



**Api Koroisau:** Kia kaha⁢ to the Fijiana 7s!
