The final at BC Place was the second meeting between the two sides this weekend with Olympic champions Fiji having won yesterday’s Pool C encounter 24-21.

Kenya were first on the scoring board today with a try from Willy Ambaka but Fiji responded through Josua Vakurunabili.

By half-time both sides had added another to draw level at 12-12.

Fiji dominated the second-half with three further tries as Sevuloni Mocenacagi added to his first-half score to secure a brace and earn the player of the final title.

"There’s a real sense of pride more than anything today," Gareth Baber, coach of the Olympic champions, said.

"We handled ourselves well across the weekend to get to a final with Kenya, who we’d had a tough battle with yesterday.

"It was very close at the break - we hadn’t really played much at half-time but the team responded in the second-half and produced the rugby that we know Fiji can and it was great to watch."

Fiji’s win comes just a week after they were beaten by hosts United States in the semi-finals of the World Rugby Sevens Series event in Las Vegas.

"You’re always looking for some consistency in form - you get confidence from that and when you have confidence you play better," Baber added.

"We learned from last weekend, losing to USA, but we knew we had to come here and get something out of it to keep pressure on the top of the table and that’s what we’ve done.

"Mission accomplished as far as Vancouver is concerned and we go back to Fiji now to prepare for Hong Kong."

Fiji had earlier defeated Argentina 43-7 in the quarter-finals and South Africa 15-12 in the semi-finals.

Their unbeaten run stretched throughout the competition and earned them their first victory in Vancouver and 33rd in 67 finals.

Sevens Series leaders South Africa claimed the bronze medal after beating the US 29-7 with five tries to their opponent’s one.

Scotland were the Challenge Trophy winners after day two victories over Canada, Wales and then Spain, 29-5, in the final.

Samoa secured a 21-15 win over Canada in the 13th-place play-off, while England beat Australia 31-14 in the fifth-place play-off.

Afters six rounds of the 2018 Sevens Series, South Africa retain top spot in the standings with 109 points.

Fiji, now in second place after overtaking New Zealand, are just eight points behind them.

New Zealand are a further nine points back in third.

The next leg of the Series is due to take place in Hong Kong from April 6 to 8.
