A withering burst of 24 unanswered points in five minutes set New Zealand up for a 24-7 win over arch-rivals Fiji in the final of
the fourth leg of the IRB Sevens World Series on Saturday.
The triumph gave New Zealand a clear lead in the series with 73 points, ahead of Fiji on 70 with five rounds remaining after both
sides went into the tournament as co-leaders on 51 points.
New Zealand, who were defending their home title, took five minutes to get their first points on the board but thereafter they
never looked like losing.
England are now third on the points table with 64, ahead of South Africa on 61 and France on 49.
The fifth leg of the series will be played in Las Vegas next weekend.
