Wales are pipped by Fiji in the final of the Hong Kong sevens Wales lost a 19 point half time lead as they were were beaten 26-19 by Fiji in the final of the Hong Kong sevens. The Welsh led 19-0 at the interval thanks to tries by Cory Allen (2) and Alex Webber, Rhys Jones converting two. But a hat-trick of touchdowns by substitute Osea Kolinisau and a fourth by Samisoni Viriviri and three conversions by Emosi Mulevoro saw Fiji complete a startling comeback. It was Fiji's second victory of the 2013 IRB sevens series. But there was controversy when Fiji's Ilai Tinai was yellow carded for a tip tackle on Lee Williams - an offence normally punished by a red card. Wales reached their first ever Hong Kong final thanks to an emphatic 19-0 win over Kenya in the semi final, with tries from Lee Williams, Craig Price and Sam Cross, and Rhys Jones adding two conversions. Earlier they had beaten Canada 28-14 in the quarter final, twice coming from behind with tries from Craig Price, Adam Thomas, Alex Webber and Cory Allen all converted by Rhys Jones. In the group stage Wales edged 19-14 victories over both Australia and Argentina.
