Fiji underline counter-attack threat with win over Tonga


AUCKLAND (Reuters) - Fiji highlighted how dangerous they could be on the counterattack at the World Cup as they scored two scintillating long-range tries to beat Tonga 29-19 at Eden Park on Saturday.

The match, part of a 'Pasifika Challenge' double header that also included Samoa beating a New Zealand Heartland XV 36-19 in the first game, was the final warmup match for the Fijians before they head to Japan.
