Japan s third Pool B loss, following a disappointing 24-19 defeat to defending champion Fiji in Monday s opener and a 34-0 drubbing by Great Britain later that day, relegates the hosts into games to determine the tournament s ninth to 12th place finishers.

There will be no room for complacency when the Team Fiji men’s rugby 7s team enters the field in the opening match against Japan at the Tokyo Olympic Games next Monday.
The opening fixture is highly regarded as the toughest in any tournament and the game against the hosts will be no exception.
Playing in front of an empty stadium will also have an effect on the teams especially Fiji which has always attracted big fan support in tournaments around the world.
Fiji men’s 7s head coach Gareth Baber said they represented a proud nation with history and tradition in the sport of rugby.
