It was just five years ago that Fiji dished out one of the biggest upsets in Rugby League World Cup history, and now, New Zealand will have a chance to avenge that loss in the third quarter-final at the 2022 edition of the tournament in England.
Zero Tackle will be covering the game live from 6:30am (AEDT) on Sunday morning.
Fiji’s narrow win over New Zealand in Wellington during the 2017 tournament was one of the biggest upsets in international rugby league history, but Fiji will need to improve again to outclass one of the best Kiwi sides ever named.
New Zealand come into the game unbeaten through the tournament to date, while Fiji have otherwise been excellent with a pair of wins since their first loss to Australia.
