As the Irish pushed for a winning score inside the final minute, the All Blacks Sevens pounced on a loose ball and launched a counter-attack that led to Leroy Carter’s game-winning score in a 17-7 victory. We use cookies to store information about how you use our website. Ireland’s bid to record their first ever win over New Zealand got off to a bad start as the All Blacks Sevens ran into a 12-0 lead by half-time thanks to McGarvey-Black and Brady Rush tries, but the Series’ leading try scorer Terry Kennedy reduced the deficit after the break with his 45th score of the season and sixth in London. A dominant first half performance from Fiji sent them on their way to a 36-10 win over England in the first quarter-final, marking a sixth consecutive victory for the Flying Fijians at this stage of the London 7s. History was made as HSBC Player of the Final Henry Paterson ran in a hat-trick of tries to lead the Aussie Sevens to their first Cup final victory over the All Blacks Sevens in 20 years. The battle for the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series title will go down to the final event after Australia defeated New Zealand with a golden-point victory to claim their first gold medal of the season in London. Fiji responded as Nacuqu powered over in the corner under two tackles, but a TMO review showed he lost control of the ball, and it was New Zealand who progressed to their 100th Series Cup final. This includes unique identifiers, such as your name and geolocation, or your browsing data. But Paterson showed his class once more with his second try of the game and sixth of the weekend, gathering the ball at a standstill midway into his own half before showing the pace to go the distance.

But it was another disappointing day for South Africa, winners of the first four tournaments of the season, who blew a 17-point lead to lose to Australia in the quarter-finals on a weekend where they had a chance to wrap up the Series title if results went their way.

“It was obviously disappointing from a results point of view,” reflected Pugh. “We failed to convert in games. “We couldn’t back up a good effort with another good effort – we just seemed to compound a good effort with a mistake or error but that’s what happens when a team isn’t probably brimming with confidence and that happens and it’s a learning experience for the boys,” admitted Pugh. “I’m proud of the efforts the boys put in but ultimately, we fell short.”
