New Zealand's pride, the All Blacks Sevens, certainly rose to the occasion! They kicked off their campaign with stunning victories over both Japan and South Africa, securing their place in the quarter-finals.

After all, carrying the weight of a nation known for rugby prowess is no small feat! The chatter and anticipation for what lies ahead are building feverishly.

Standing in their way, however, were fierce competitors. And while the All Blacks snagged wins, other nations such as Fiji and Ireland also made a mark on day one. France, led by star Antoine Dupont, grappled with challenges, which left fans wondering if their chances of snagging a medal are still alive. One thing is for sure, with such an explosive start, the tournament promises to be riveting with more twists and turns than a rollercoaster!

As things heat up in Paris, the excitement doesn’t just live on the pitch—it extends to fans and followers everywhere tuning in for global rugby drama. Whether you're a hardcore fan or a casual viewer, the allure of Rugby Sevens during the Olympics is impossible to resist.
