Savai'i Samoa try fest too much for Tau'uta Gold
Savai'i Samoa ran in six tries to defeat Tautahi Gold of Tonga 34-22 in the fifth round of the Pacific Rugby Cup in Apia on Saturday.
Tauvanga Faufou collected a brace while Ulia Ulia, Paul Tung, Sitiveni Leleimalefaga and Alvin Tavana claimed a try each.
Ki Anufe added the extra's.
However, Lopeti Liku of the Tautahi Gold was in explosive form collecting a hat trick. Sione Niutonga scored a try also with Sitaleki Luau adding a conversion.
Both sides have failed to qualify for the final.
In a major upset, a young Upolu Samoa side defeated a start-studded Air Pacific Fiji Warriors team 29-27 at Lawaqa Park to book a spot in the final against Tau'uta Reds.
The Reds, who downed the Air Pacific Fiji Barbarians 21-14, became the first Tongan side to qualify for the PRC Final.
